Following the standard (citation needed) controls on console versions, I set the joysticks for movement and camera, face buttons for attacks and jump, L1 to guard, L2 to call horse, R1 to switch weapon, R2 to toggle map, Options/Start for the Display Info screen, Share/Back for Pause, R3 for rage mode, and the d-pad L/R/U/D to command bodyguard 1/2/3/4 respectively.
