Binds on Weapons and Other Fortnite Items

Full inventory customization will appear in the game very soon. You will be able to specify weapon types for each cell according to your tastes. Thanks to this feature, you do not have to be distracted to sort your inventory, distributing the types of weapons and items into slots that are familiar and convenient for you.

It's coming soon, but for now, let's check out the best Fortnite keyboard shortcuts for your keyboard and mouse!

We will look at the most popular options for binding keys to a PC keyboard! Proper keyboard shortcuts are one of the most important aspects of playing at a high level. If you don't feel comfortable using the keys, you won't build muscle memory and you'll make mechanical mistakes. Proper control from the start is a good way to set yourself up to improve in Fortnite.

Once you have a good set of keyboard shortcuts selected, you won't want to change them! It should be understood that while easily accessible controls are an important starting point, changing them frequently will not improve your in-game abilities.

You'll want to play the same set over and over again for many hours to get them to the point where you never have to think about which key to press. Professional players have achieved success at the highest level thanks to many different keyboard shortcuts.

Fortnite Keybinding Tips

Here are some general keybinding tips! Remember that comfort is the most important aspect of setting up your bindings.

• Find the best keyboard shortcuts that suit your hands!
  • Don't use a set of keyboard shortcuts just because a specific professional uses them. They may suit them well because they have larger hands or longer fingers. If you are especially young, you may have shorter fingers and find it difficult to reach certain keys.
• Your pick does not need to be tied to a key of particular importance. You do this quite often, but it rarely happens in a stressful situation.
  • Some players change it to a key like X, which is not normally used. This allows you to move weapon keys 1-5 instead of 2-6.
• If you are using Sprint By Default, you can use the Left Shift key for one of your bindings. This is a conveniently located key that is useful for many different options.
• Tab is another key to use, whether it's for your map or your inventory.
• Consider using Caps Lock as an option, it's heavily underused and very affordable. You rarely see anyone use it when it's one of the closest keys. This might be a good clue for your map or inventory.
