If you’re searching for how to turn off controller vibration in Fortnite, you’re likely looking for a smoother, distraction-free gaming experience. Controller vibration—also known as rumble or haptic feedback- can feel fun, but many players disable it to improve aim, reduce hand fatigue, and extend battery life.

In this detailed Fortnite guide, you’ll learn exactly how to turn off controller vibration in Fortnite on every major platform, including PlayStation, Xbox, PC, and Nintendo Switch.

Now let’s go step-by-step.

How to turn off controller vibration in Fortnite (All platforms)

The process is nearly identical across platforms because the setting is located inside Fortnite itself.

• Open Fortnite and wait until you reach the main lobby screen.
• You will now see multiple tabs across the top of the screen. Select the Settings icon (gear symbol) from the menu. 
• Scroll through the tabs until you find the Controller tab (marked with a gamepad icon). In some versions, this may appear under Input settings. Select the Controller tab to continue.
• Locate the setting labeled: Vibration Feature
• Toggle the setting to Off.
• Press Apply if required.

Once applied, controller vibration will be disabled in Fortnite.

That’s the complete in-game method for how to turn off controller vibration in Fortnite.

Although the in-game setting works for most players, here are additional platform-specific details in case vibration continues.

The in-game method should work immediately. However, if controller vibration in Fortnite still occurs:

• Select Accessories.
• Choose Controllers.
• Turn Vibration Intensity to Off.

This disables vibration for all games, including Fortnite.

1. Press the Xbox button.

4. Choose Controller.
5. Hit Vibration settings
6. Turn Vibration off.

This ensures no vibration occurs in Fortnite or other games.

Many PC players use Xbox or PlayStation controllers with third-party apps & the process depends on it. If launching through Steam, here is how to turn off controller vibration in Fortnite on PC.

• Go to Settings

PC controller software can override in-game settings, so double-check these programs.

On Nintendo Switch, follow these in-game steps.
