Regardless of which controller you’re using, jumping in this game is done by holding the dodge button, running forward, and pressing the jump button while running. For PlayStation and Xbox controllers, this would mean holding down the Circle or B button respectively, then pushing the stick forward and clicking the left stick during the running animation. The default controls for the PC version have the jump button on the space bar, making it the same as the dodge button. This means you’ll need to quickly press space to jump, but you can remap this control scheme if it’s too difficult.
Jumping can be useful for accessing hidden areas or alternate paths. They offer some control over where you land and provide a good opportunity for dive attacks. You can use jumps to leave creative messages in hard-to-reach places, or you can use them to outwit slower enemies. Just keep in mind that Dark Souls 3 is not a platform game. Trying to use jumps as consistently as in other games won’t get you anywhere fast, especially since they don’t boost up on level up like normal stats do. If you want to use the jump in combat, it is better to use jump attacks. These are performed in the same way as kicks – just replace the attack button with the strong attack button!

There’s a kind of ingenuity to the mechanically crude jumping mechanic of the Dark Souls series (obtained on an Xbox controller by holding B to run and then pressing LS to jump).
