To activate this mode on console (PS4, PS4 Pro, and Xbox One), simultaneously press in both of the control sticks on either the Dualshock 4 (L3+R3) or Xbox One controller (LS+RS).
To activate it on PC, simply press the “N” key on your keyboard.
If you want to switch back to third-person view in either the Royal Edition or the Windows Edition of the game, simply depress the control sticks or “N” key again – and you’re back seeing things in over-the-shoulder mode.
