About Steady Aim, IO Interactive explained, “This allows you to improve your aim and slow time when aiming with a Sniper Rifle with the Marksman perk, especially useful for the Sniper Assassin game mode and certain Mission Stories. The in-game UI and controller maps will display this accurately.” IO also noted that it’s possible to go into the options menu to toggle whether you hold or tap ZL to aim a weapon.
