Fortnite on xbox is giving my controller double inputs and I don't know how to fix it

SouthPaw Stavinoha · Mar 12, 2023

So this only happens on fortnite and it hinders my ability to use vital controls such as aiming, sliding, etc. The controller is acting like it is getting 2 of every input essentially, like stick drift but for the game and not the controller. If I could get assistance in this being resolved I will be very grateful

It worked momentarily but I cannot fix this issue with the steps you have provided. This issue is only with fortnite and no other game so it shouldn't be the controller.

Double inputs on your controller can be frustrating, especially when it affects your gameplay. Here are a few things you can try to fix this issue on Fortnite for Xbox:

Update your controller: Make sure your controller is up to date with the latest firmware updates. You can update your Xbox controller by connecting it to your Xbox console, and then checking for updates in the Settings menu.
Reset your controller: Sometimes, resetting your controller can help fix double input issues. To reset your Xbox controller, hold down the sync button on the back of the controller until the light on the front begins to flash. Then, wait a few seconds and try reconnecting the controller to your Xbox console.
Check your game settings: Double inputs can sometimes be caused by incorrect game settings. Check your Fortnite settings to make sure they are set up correctly. You can also try resetting your in-game settings to default to see if this fixes the issue.
Test a different controller: If you have access to a different Xbox controller, try using it to see if the issue persists. If it does not, the issue may be with your original controller and you may need to replace it.
Reinstall Fortnite: If none of the above solutions work, try uninstalling and reinstalling Fortnite. This can sometimes fix issues with game files and settings.

Hopefully, one of these solutions will help you fix the double input issue with your Xbox controller on Fortnite.

So the only fix is to not use remote play?

I had the same issue, I was using the remote play feature and when I stoped using it, it fixed the issue. Hope this helps.
