It takes plenty of skill and dedication to win matches in Fortnite, especially when you’re going up against pros. Aside from mechanical aim, you also need a good amount of game sense, and if you’re playing on PC, good keybinds. Pressing the right key can mean the difference between winning or losing in Fortnite, so here are the best Fortnite keybinds you can use.
What the Best Fortnite Keybinds Are (PC)
When it boils down to it, the best keybinds in Fortnite are the ones you feel most comfortable with. You’ll be using muscle memory during matches, so constantly shifting your keybinds might have a negative effect on your performance.
That said, there’s no real reason to change your current loadout on your PC if it works fine for you. If you aren’t comfortable with your set up, on the other hand, you can check out what the Fortnite pros use for their keybinds to get an idea of what your loadout could be like:

When requested, press the key you want to assign the action to. Once you’ve done this, you’ll have changed the keybind in Fortnite for that action.
