Okay so "Blood of Dawnwalker" seems pretty much up my alley. BUT before buying it I need to know if there are "aiming" elements, and if so, does it support gyro aiming? The list of accessibility options on the game's page (PS5) says that it is "playable without motion controls", which is the exact opposite of what I want to know.

I mean if that's how it's phrased they can just not bother implementing it and check the box. Useless list.

Anybody can help here?
