How does matchmaking work in Fortnite?

Best Answer

Matchmaking in Fortnite is based on a combination of several factors, including skill level, platform, and sometimes even input type (keyboard/mouse vs. controller). Epic Games uses a system called Skill-Based Matchmaking (SBMM) to pair you with players of similar skill level to make the games more balanced and fun.

It’s mostly about matching players with similar skill levels. They don’t want you getting stomped by someone just because they have the fastest thumbs.

From my experience, matchmaking in Fortnite seems to prioritize skill. I started winning more consistently as I improved, and my opponents got tougher. It keeps the game challenging and rewarding!
