Keyboard mapping issue: Right shift recognised as Left shift

I was trying to play Brothers: A tale of two sons from the Epic Game Store. Get stuck because the tutorial forces you to "learn" rotating the camera view by pressing the left and right shift key. Somehow, it seems that the game recognises right shift key press as left shift. I've tried with the built-in MacBook keyboard, a USB keyboard and Apple's Magic Keyboard (bluetooth), all of them having the same problem.

I also checked the keyboard event log using Karabiner EventViewer and all the keyboard does send the correct key code on macOS. So I'm wondering if CrossOver itself is not sending over the right shift key code to the game engine? Anyone else faced this issue before?

In case anyone is also trying to play Brothers, A tale of two sons, I figured I could just play it with the Xbox 360 controller. LB and RB works to rotate the screen, so all good now.
