Xbox PS5 controller button prompt for Zoom?
Is there a button press for zoom to toggle to 3rd person mode? Which button?

There is no fixed third-person camera view that I know of.

You just zoom in to create what looks like a third-person view.

In game the level of zoom is controlled by the mouse wheel, I can only assume by the way most camera controls work on controller that it's likely to be tied to the right stick, maybe an R3 click to change zoom.
I'm just speculating though, as controller support isn't out yet and won't be until launch, so nobody really knows.

I saw a guy use R3 to zoom but he was using mods on YouTube.

Yea, modding would be the only way to do it right now, or just trying to map the most important functions yourself.

But I wouldn't worry about it. Controller support for PC based games has come a long way. Diablo 3 was pretty good, Diablo 2 resurrected knocked it out of the park(maybe a little to much) and most other games have followed similar outlines.

It's probably even easier for a game like BG3 because it's turn based and fast actions and reflexes are not as necessary.

I'm sure it will be good.

you dont need mods, just go to Steam big picture mode and pick a controller profile for BG3 or make your own
