Fortnite: Best Controller Settings According To The Pros (2024)

Find out controller settings for some of the world’s best Fortnite players.

Controllers in Fortnite Battle Royale have become a much more viable option since the game came out in 2018. Back in those days, most elite players used a keyboard and mouse to execute flashy plays and successfully build fight opponents. Controller players have experienced a significant resurgence over time, particularly in 2020. Top competitors like Scoped, Wolfiez, Reet, Mero and Deyy emerged as some of the year's best talents on the sticks. It's worth wondering how they manage to achieve such success with a device so familiar to most.

The key to mastering Fortnite as a controller player lies within aim assist and the settings. Finding the perfect sensitivity and button combinations is essential to understanding what suits you the best. Although many top players have similar settings, there are key differences from one to another that could click well with your comfort level.
