There's something about owning an instrument that makes playing music and getting into the groove a lot easier. The same can be said for how you play Fortnite Festival. Your control and key layout directly affects this. Here's how to customize controls and keybindings for Fortnite Festival…
Fortnite Festival: How to Change Controls?
The default inputs for the mod are fine on the keyboard (but arguably terrible on the gamepad). I played all currently available songs on hard and got pretty good scores using them. However, I must admit that while the keyboard inputs are better than the controller, they are a little too close together for my taste.
Fortunately, converting controls to a custom layout is quick and easy. Follow these steps:
- Go to Settings.
- Select Keyboard Controls or Controller Pairing at the top, depending on your input device.
- Scroll down to “Main Stage (Easy, Medium, Hard).
- Or scroll down to “Main Stage (Expert)”.
- You can then change the inputs and Overdrive per lane.
The great thing about Fortnite Festival is that you can make Expert even harder if you want by simply changing the inputs and keys for that difficulty. Besides Being able to assign two inputs for each track on the keyboard will probably make it a little easier to reach triangle notes..
Finally, you can also change the controls for the behind-the-scenes portion of the Fortnite Festival. This way you can set another key or button for Ready and Change Difficulty.
Best Button Layout for Controller
While nothing beats an instrument controller, PC players have more (and better) options for reconnecting inputs. Most of these are based on comfort rather than pure functionality. However, console players are a little behind in this regard. I would argue that playing Fortnite Festival with a gamepad is a bad idea.
But if you need to play with a controller, I recommend setting up your controller and changing your controls like this:
- lane 1:LT/L2
- lane 2: LB/L1
- lane 3: RB/R1
- lane 4:RT/R2
- lane 5:A/X
- Overdrive: A/X on everything below Expert and any button above Expert that you feel comfortable with.
This is how to change controls, remap keybinds and inputs while playing Fortnite Festival. Currently, the mode does not officially support Guitar Hero and Rockband controllers, but Epic said it will be added in 2024. Unofficially, these controllers may work if you download third-party controller mapping software, but do so at your own risk.
