Where is mouse sensitivity in Resident Evil Requiem?

How to find and tweak the game's mouse sensitivity

Resident Evil Requiem does include a setting to change mouse sensitivity, but players have reported it isn’t obvious at first glance. The option exists inside the game's menus rather than being exposed on the default quick-access overlays many PC users expect, which led to the recent PSA pointing it out.

On PC, an in-game sensitivity slider will change how quickly your aim moves in response to physical mouse motion. Adjusting this slider will have a direct impact on aiming feel, responsiveness, and comfort during combat — especially in close-quarters encounters where precision matters. Console players using mouse-and-keyboard on Switch 2 or other ports should also be able to find the same control inside the settings menus.

A few practical tips players have found useful:

• Look through the main Options menu and inspect both the Controls and Accessibility submenus — sensitivity controls are often tucked into one of those sections.
• Combine any in-game slider adjustments with your mouse's DPI settings if your hardware supports it; the two together determine total pointer speed.
• If aiming still feels off after changing sensitivity, check for other input options like aim assist, smoothing, or raw input toggles that can affect perceived responsiveness.

Why this matters: the right balance makes the game feel fair and lets you reliably land shots or react to sudden threats. Because the setting is easy to miss, many early players assumed aim couldn't be adjusted and either played with uncomfortable input or searched forums for workarounds. If you struggle with aiming early on, pause and spend five minutes hunting the options menu — it will improve comfort and performance without needing any technical fixes.
