Last updated
Ever wondered how you can use your PS4 controller to play Fortnite on your PC? Well, you’re in the right spot!
Today, we’re diving into the steps on how to connect a PS4 controller to your PC for a Fortnite gaming session.
Quick Steps to Connect Your PS4 Controller
Connecting your PS4 controller to your PC for Fortnite is simpler than you might think. First, ensure your controller is charged and your PC is on and ready to go.
You have two main options to connect: using a USB cable or via Bluetooth. For a USB connection, simply plug your controller’s cable into your PC. To connect via Bluetooth, hold the PS and Share buttons on your controller until the light bar starts to flash, then pair it through your PC’s Bluetooth settings.
Playing Fortnite with a PS4 Controller on PC
Once connected, Fortnite on your PC should recognize your PS4 controller immediately. Jump into the game, and you’ll see your controller’s button layout reflected in the game’s on-screen prompts.
If for some reason Fortnite doesn’t recognize your controller, don’t panic! Double-check your connections, and make sure your PC’s drivers are up to date. Sometimes, a quick reboot of the game or your PC can do the trick.
