Ever wondered how to enhance your Fortnite experience on PC by using a controller? Let’s dive into how you can do exactly that.

Quick Steps to Connect Your Controller
Connecting a controller to play Fortnite on your PC is simpler than you might think. You can use most modern controllers, including Xbox and PlayStation ones.
First, make sure your PC has Bluetooth or a USB port available. For Bluetooth, pair your controller by going to your PC’s Bluetooth settings and finding your controller.
