Tips for Gyro Settings in Fortnite
While gyro controls have been a thing in Fortnite on Nintendo Switch and mobile platforms, it is now being released to PC and PlayStation consoles. You should note that this feature is only available on PC if you have a PS4 or PS5 controller connected by USB. PlayStation console users will immediately take advantage of these new features.
It will likely take a couple of matches for players to get used to the new gyro controls, but its help to controller gamers is bound to be more than enough to make up for it. Things like the Sensitivity and Steadying settings will likely be more reliant on individual player preference than one set rule. The best way to find the best gyro settings for how you play is to try it out and see what you don’t like about it.
The Flick Stick option allows you to quickly flip your camera in the direction you press, making it easier to turn and face any attackers immediately. Still, it will also prevent you from aiming as you would before. This may also be something that relies on user preference.
