With Both Arms:
- Grab Someone with both arms: RB & LB
- Lift the player: Don’t stop holding RB & LB, and start holding down the Y
- Release the Y first, but don’t let the player hit the ground; before it happens, release RB & LB to throw him
With One Arm:
- (It’s not a step, but Don’t knock out the player you want to throw)
- Grab Someone with one arm: Hold RB OR LB (Not both!!)
- Lift the player: Don’t stop holding RB OR LB (Not both!!), and start holding down the Y
- Start walking in circles: Clockwise if you are holding them up with the left arm, but counter-clockwise if you are holding them up with the right arm
- Throw them: Release RB OR LB (the one you chose)
Controls for Gang Beasts Xbox – How to Climb:
Climb:
A normal climb can be used to scale a ledge and keep your flailing character in action. This is done by pressing the following button combinations.
- Xbox One: Hold RB + LB + A
Jumping Climb:
If you need to scale a tall object or wall that the normal climb won’t get you up, you can always try the Jumping Climb instead. This involves jumping while your character is grabbing hold of a wall…
- Xbox One: Hold RB + LB + Double-tap A
Getting your legs Up:
when you reach the top, you’ll need to get their legs up and over the ledge so you can properly return to the action… and avoid elimination
