How to Jump and Dive

For those unfamiliar, Fall Guys places players with dozens of other people to compete against one another in different arenas. These games can be anything from obstacle courses to memory games but usually only require players to complete straightforward tasks. Diving is a crucial element to Fall Guys because it can add extra length to a player’s jump. For players to get their start jumping, first and foremost, Fall Guys has the following controls across its platforms:

PlayStation: X PC: Space Switch: B Xbox: A

For diving, they are as follows:

PlayStation: Square PC Keyboard: Ctrl Switch: Y Xbox: X

There are plenty of different game modes in Fall Guys but a surprising amount of these require players to have mastered these controls. In particular, Hex-A-Gone and Hoopsie Daisy are best managed when players jump to different hexagons for the former and dive through hoops for the latter.

How to Grab in Fall Guys

One of the more frustrating pieces of Fall Guys is its grab function. Players can use this on rivals to make the levels and challenges a bit more difficult by grabbing others and preventing them from moving for a short time or messing with their overall timing. It’s an important skill to master in order to succeed. The controls for this gameplay mechanic are also different across platform and are as follows:

PlayStation: R2 PC: Shift Switch: Zr Xbox: RT

While it can be tactical for getting other players out, it also has a particular use in some of Fall Guys best mini-games. Mastering how to grab in the game is crucial for those looking to advance past the Tail Tag challenge. In this game, players are tasked with acquiring a tail from those players that have one by grabbing on to them.

Fall Guys is available now for PC, PS4, PS5, Switch, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X/S.
