The Fortnite controller community has been around since the OG days of the game. Epic Games has given the platform to all players either on the controller or keyboard to showcase their mantle in the ever looping Battle Royale. But the play style of each input is different.

Hence, there have been various advantages given to both keyboard and controller players in Fortnite. Controller players have increased control of aim assist in helping them in their movement and tracking of opponents, using a joystick. This valuable input has come into play the most in the current chapter.

Currently, in Chapter 3, different Assault Rifles and SMGs are in the game. The new guns that were added into the game were revolutionary yet broken. These weapons were so overpowered that they bent the weapon balance in the game completely.

Until recently, Epic had buffed up some of the guns to make them more balanced for the community. Nonetheless, weapons available in the game have a faster fire rate than in the previous seasons. These weapons are the MK-seven assault rifle and the Stinger SMG.

This gives controller players a higher advantage in the current chapter to use these weapons to dominate opponents with their aim and tracking skills.

The release of the new heavy shotgun into the game, which provides a much more accurate ADS, could also be helpful for controller players to eliminate their opponents quickly. The majority of controller players are known for their precise aim and tracking.
