Wondering if you can swap your keyboard and mouse for a controller while playing Fortnite on your PC? You absolutely can, and it’s easier than you might think!

Let’s dive into the cool and simple way to use a controller on PC for Fortnite, ensuring your gaming experience is as epic as possible.

Quick Steps to Connect Your Controller

Connecting your controller to play Fortnite on your PC involves a few easy steps. First, make sure you have a compatible controller. Most USB and Bluetooth controllers will work, including Xbox and PlayStation controllers.

For a wired connection, simply plug your controller into a USB port on your PC. If it’s wireless, you’ll need to use your computer’s Bluetooth settings to pair it. Once connected, Fortnite should automatically recognize your controller the next time you launch the game. Easy, right?

Enjoying Fortnite with a Controller on PC

Playing Fortnite with a controller on PC might give you a new perspective and possibly an edge over your keyboard-wielding rivals. You’ll enjoy the comfort of your familiar controller layout, making those victory royales even sweeter.

Remember, adjusting your game settings might help you get the most out of your controller gameplay. Experiment with sensitivity and layout options to find what works best for you.
