Controlling excitons in van der Waals coupled systems is a key idea to reveal tailored properties for the development of opto-electronic devices. Exciton energy and character in antiferromagnetic multilayer CrSBr can be controlled by an external magnetic field switching the internal magnetization to a ferromagnetic order. This modifies the optical response and we observe in our ab-initio GW/BSE calculations a distinct redshift, in accordance with corresponding measurements. We set up a minimal model to explain and convey the underlying physical mechanisms. Depending on the external field the coupling of adjacent layers is changed, shifting electronic states linearly in energy and excitons quadratically with respect to the field strength. While our results are generally valid for antiferromagnetic layered magnets, we uncover that the lowest excitation in CrSBr is optically dark and its detuning can also be controlled by the magnetic field.
