Xbox Series X and Series S support 120 FPS, which provides a major responsiveness advantage.
Go to:
Settings → General → TV & Display Options → Refresh Rate → 120Hz
(If 120Hz doesn’t appear, your TV or monitor may not support it.)
Inside Fortnite:
Settings → Video → 120 FPS Mode → ON
Xbox One, One S, and One X are capped at 60 FPS, so the focus should be:
Consoles don’t offer PC-level graphics controls, but these options still matter for clarity.
Important: Brightness and colorblind settings are popular baselines, not mandatory values. Final tuning should be based on your TV or monitor, room lighting, and personal comfort.

Especially helpful if you’re not using a high-end headset.
These controller settings follow current competitive controller principles and work well for both 120 FPS and 60 FPS play.
Xbox controllers have slightly firmer thumbsticks than PlayStation controllers, so values are adjusted for smooth tracking and shotgun accuracy.
Turning vibration off is a standard competitive recommendation, though a small number of players still prefer light vibration.
This provides responsive turning without losing control.
Lower ADS values help with consistent tracking at mid-range.
Most high-level controller players tend to stay in the 1.8×–2.3× range. Start at 2.0× and adjust gradually.
Boosts are generally avoided in competitive play because they make aim less predictable.
Goal: keep values as low as possible without introducing stick drift. Some controllers may require higher values.
Xbox may not offer the same customization as PC, but with the right settings, you can achieve:
These recommendations are tested, competitive-friendly, and optimized for Fortnite Chapter 7 in 2026.
If you also play on PlayStation, you’ll notice similar principles, but slight differences in controller feel and system menus matter. That’s why each platform has its own dedicated guide inside the FortniteLoaded settings hub.
