The controls in order to slide in Madden 22 are rather simple, as they’re going to remain unchanged compared to last year when they received a significant alteration.
The button players are going to want to hit is the Square or X depending on the platform they’re playing on, but if you hold this button you will immediately dive rather than slide. The dive is effective in certain scenarios, but the slide maneuver is vastly more useful when defenders are closing in on you.
