Last updated
Ever wondered how you and a friend can team up and play Fortnite together on the same Nintendo Switch? Well, you’re in the right place to discover exactly how to do that!
Let’s dive into how you can share the excitement of Fortnite on your Nintendo Switch with a friend, side by side, on the same screen.
Playing Split-Screen Fortnite on Your Switch
Good news! Playing Fortnite in split-screen mode on your Nintendo Switch is possible and pretty straightforward. All you need is a pair of Joy-Con controllers (or a Pro Controller), your Nintendo Switch, and, of course, a buddy!
First, ensure you’ve got Fortnite installed on your Nintendo Switch. Then, on the Fortnite home screen, connect the second controller by pressing a button on it. You’ll see a prompt on your screen to log in the second player. One of you can use the left Joy-Con and the other the right, or you can each use a full set of Joy-Cons or Pro Controllers. Once both players are logged in, the screen will automatically split, and voila! You’re now ready to enjoy Fortnite with a friend, side by side.
Why Play Fortnite Split-Screen on Nintendo Switch?
The Nintendo Switch’s portability and versatility make it a fantastic console for split-screen gaming, especially for Fortnite. It means you can enjoy hunting for Victory Royales together, whether you’re at home or on the go. Plus, playing in the same room lets you strategize and react together in real-time, making those wins even sweeter!
