Diving is a universal mechanic you can perform in all mini-games, and it's very useful in many different situations, from performing a well-timed overtake, to getting that extra distance for a platform jump. 

Obviously, the dive button changes from platform to platform. For PC players, you will need to press the CTRL key, for PlayStation it's the Square button, for Xbox it's the X button, and it's Y on the Nintendo Switch. 

Just diving on its own is mostly useless barring some specific situations, but performing a jump before a dive can make all the difference. This is how you get the extra distance that makes it a key mechanic for the obstacle course and racing mini-games. Jumping can be done with the Space key on keyboard, A on Xbox, X on PlayStation, and B on Nintendo Switch. 

That's all for our how to dive Fall Guys guide, and now you know how to perform a dive on each platform, along with its uses.
