Autowalk is a key feature in every game where you have to traverse a bunch of ground on foot. V Rising is no different. With the massive map, especially the new parts added by the update, having to constantly hold down W is going to destroy your keyboard.
Thankfully, V Rising comes with an auto walk hotkey. Here’s how to use it.
Auto Walk Hotkey V Rising

By default, the auto walk hotkey in V Rising is mouse4. Some very plain mice might not have a button, so go into the settings and swap it out for a better hotkey.
Just go to settings -> controls -> movement. There you will see the auto run key binding.
