Starfield Toggle Walk/Run - How to Walk, Run, and Sprint in Starfield

In games like Starfield, you'll have to alternate between walking and running depending on the situation. Sometimes you'll need to walk, especially during NPC dialogue scenes, where it's most comfortable to match the player's movement. However, there will be times when you'll need to jump and run, especially during battles or when you have to complete a mission quickly.

Luckily, toggling between walk and run in Starfield is simple and only requires pressing a key.

To toggle between walking and running in Starfield on PC, use the 'Caps Lock' key. Simply press 'Caps Lock' to switch modes as you move. For a sprint, hit 'L Shift,' but be cautious—sprinting uses oxygen, potentially impacting your health. Press 'L Control' to return to standard movement or to activate the sneak mode.

Unlike on PC, the option to toggle between walking and running in Starfield isn't available on console. However, adapting your character's speed is simple. Just manipulate the joystick: give it a nudge for a casual walk or push it all the way for a brisk run.

If you want to change the key to toggle between walking and running to a more accessible one in Starfield, simply press the "Esc" key, go to "Settings," and then to "Bindings." Look for the "Toggle Always Run" option and assign the new key you prefer.

Additionally, you have the freedom to adjust keys for other functions, such as starting to run ("sprint") or entering stealth mode ("sneak"). But not only that, from this menu, you can change the key for any action you perform in the game, such as jumping, using the scanner, or the flashlight.

If you find yourself walking slowly in Starfield, simply toggle between walk and run using the 'Caps Lock' key on PC.
