In Battlefield 6, sliding is tied to the crouch mechanic. Here’s how it works across platforms:
Controller Slide Controls
- Default input: LB + Y (Xbox) or L1 + Triangle (PlayStation) during a sprint
- Only activates at full sprint speed
- Cannot be remapped separately in the current beta build
PC Slide Controls
- Rapidly double-tap C or Left Control while sprinting
- Speed of input matters – delayed taps may fail
Customization Limitations
Current beta restrictions include:
- Sliding shares binding with crouch actions
- No separate hold-to-slide option available
- Double-tap timing can’t be adjusted
- Community requests for toggle options remain unaddressed
Important note: The settings menu currently shows a misspelled “Crouh (Hold)” label, though functionality remains unaffected.
