Fortnite Gets Better Gyro Controls on Switch Thanks to New Update

Fortnite has officially been updated to version 19.30, and this new update promises more robust gyro controls for the Nintendo Switch. These controls are available with the Joy-Con controllers (including in handheld mode) or with the Pro Controller.

Check out the new video:

The updated gyro controls include more customization, no forced aim acceleration, the ability to make gyro inactive in certain situations, and less frequent recalibration.

“There is now less need to set different sensitivities depending on whether you’re sniping or targeting, since the main sensitivity slider is now scaled by zoom level.”

Players still have the option to disable zoom scaling in the Advanced Gyro Options, along with setting specific sensitivities for sniping, targeting (which is now “aiming”), harvesting, building, and editing.

Fortnite is available as a free-to-play game on Switch, and you can find additional information about today’s update on the official website.
