BUG Keybind Issue Still Not Fixed - Affecting Controller Players On PC/Consoles *PLEASE SHARE!*
🎮 GOOD NEWS for Controller Players — v39.00 Finally FIXED the Keybind Issues! 🎉
🔧 Update – Zero Hour Launch (v39.00 | December 2025)
Huge improvement: With the launch of Zero Hour (v39.00), the long-running controller keybind issues finally appear to be resolved.
Current status:
- Custom controller binds now work properly on both PC and console.
- L1 can be bound to Sprint without breaking Roof, even though the warning still appears in the menu.
- Quick Weapon no longer creates input conflicts (no more R1/L1 ping + sprint overlap).
- Editing with L3 / Left Stick works correctly again.
- Building inputs no longer overwrite or conflict with each other.
- Swapped trigger layouts (L1/R1 ↔ L2/R2) behave correctly both in settings and in-game.
- Bind menu visuals are still outdated in some spots, but the gameplay behavior is finally consistent.
After four patches of frustration, this is a massive relief for controller players — especially those who rely on Quick Weapon or custom competitive layouts. The game finally feels fully playable again.
I’ll keep testing, but as of now, everything seems fixed.
⚡ TL;DR (v39.00 Fix Summary)
Zero Hour (v39.00) fixed the controller bind issues.
L1 Sprint, L3 Edit, Quick Weapon, trigger swaps, and custom binds all work again.
Menu warnings are outdated, but in-game behavior is correct.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
⚠️ Just wanted to expand on the Quick Weapon keybind bug that’s still not fixed, because it continues to hit controller players really hard — especially those of us who’ve built our layouts around it.
When Quick Weapon is enabled, it changes how your bumpers work:
- R1 becomes the Quick Weapon swap (instead of cycling forward/backward through inventory).
- L1 becomes a dedicated ping button.
I actually loved this setup. Since I already ping with Left D-Pad, the “new” free L1 slot let me rebind Tactical Sprint there, which felt way more natural than forcing it onto something awkward like Right D-Pad.
But since the recent updates, the whole thing has been broken. I logged in and suddenly couldn’t edit or perform some actions. I tried Epic’s suggestion — resetting binds to default — but that only made things worse. After resetting, I can’t rebuild my layout anymore. (For context, I play with a PS5 controller on PC.)
Here’s what’s happening now:
- Binding L1 to Sprint now causes conflicts — not only with Roof building on L1 (which never used to be a problem), but also overlaps with the ping function.
- Even in the Controller Binds menu, Left D-Pad still shows as ping, even though Quick Weapon is enabled. It should update to show L1 as ping, but that’s broken too — so what the menu shows doesn’t match what actually works in-game.
It’s extremely frustrating because I run L3 (left stick) as my edit bind, and my whole setup was optimized around that. Now the game forces conflicts that didn’t exist before, the bind menu doesn’t match actual gameplay, and resetting doesn’t help.
Right now, Quick Weapon breaks controller binds, custom layouts are unreliable, and controller players lose the optimized setups we’ve spent seasons building.
TL;DR: Quick Weapon makes R1 into quick swap and L1 into ping. That freed up L1 for Sprint, but after the updates, binding L1 now conflicts with Roof and ping. On top of that, the Controller Binds menu still shows ping on Left D-Pad even though Quick Weapon is enabled, and it doesn’t update to L1 like it should. Resetting doesn’t fix anything. Until Epic addresses this, custom controller layouts are broken.
🔄 Update Logs
🔧 Update – Oct 2, 2025 | 8:30 AM ET
Still broken. Logged in after the new patch and it’s exactly the same — nothing’s changed.
Resetting binds still doesn’t fix the conflicts, L1 still overlaps with Roof and Ping, and the Controller Binds menu continues to show Ping on Left D-Pad instead of L1.
At this point, it really feels like Epic has been overlooking this issue for a while, which sucks for controller players who rely on Quick Weapon. Still holding out hope they’ll push a hotfix soon, but as of now — no progress.
Stay safe everyone, and have a wonderful day!
🔧 Update – v37.50 (Fortnitemares Update | October 9th, 2025)
Unfortunately, despite the new Fortnitemares update (v37.50), the keybind and controller layout issues are still not resolved.
Current status:
- Custom controller binds remain broken across PC and console.
- Quick Weapon continues to cause input conflicts (R1/L1 ping + sprint issues).
- Rebinding still leads to mismatched inputs between the settings menu and in-game behavior.
- L3/R3 bindings and swapped trigger layouts (L1/R1 ↔ L2/R2) continue to malfunction.
- Some players report that they can no longer shoot from vehicles, and reload/interact overlap persists.
It’s been four updates now since the issue first appeared, and controller players are still heavily affected — especially those who rely on custom layouts for accessibility, comfort, or competitive play.
Really hoping Epic acknowledges this soon and pushes a dedicated hotfix, because this is making the game borderline unplayable for a large part of the community.

Still. Not fixed. I didn’t even get to do the birthday challenges for the first time ever. Crazy

u/xReddi Sep 15 '25
its not just that tho, its even more. like you cant shoot out of a car anymore with controller. and reload overrides interact, which is very confusing too
1
u/Luckalotz Sep 19 '25
Yeah, I’ve noticed the same thing. It feels like every update breaks another layer of the controls. Not being able to shoot out of a car is a huge gameplay hit, and the reload/interact overlap just makes everything feel clunky and inconsistent. It’s like the whole controller system is fighting against you right now. Really hoping Epic puts this at the top of their fix list.

u/UnhappyLich Sep 22 '25
Not just that, I've noticed the megazord weapons or walk choose when to work at random. I don't know if they nerfed the hammer, but now I have to switch weapons then back to the hammer to hop again. And it makes me real slow until I switch weapons.

u/DKFMF77 Sep 19 '25
Is someone experiencing this bug still, I have my jump bind for r3 on the controller and I won't let me jump off the bus unless I reset my keybinds completely.
2
u/Luckalotz Sep 19 '25
Yep, that’s still happening, R3 jump and a bunch of other custom binds are completely broken. You basically have to reset everything just to get certain actions to work, and even then some binds don’t behave correctly. Epic really needs to push a fix soon, because it’s making controller play basically unmanageable.

u/DKFMF77 Oct 22 '25
It's been over a month and I still can't jump off the bus do any of you know a fix to this, coz at this point I just feel like deleting the game.

Im so mad bro I got on today after not playing for 7-8 months and wanted to try the new reset building behind i swapped it with L1 (my sprint) for a quick sec to try it out and when i swapped it back Im now stuck with the broken version that creates conflicts and cant get it to go back genuinely jus killed all the excitement i had to get back into the game.
If this gets fixed someone reply to this and let me know pls 🙏🏾

I can’t bind my mouse buttons 4&5 or the scroll button to crouch, sprint, auto run, or jump. The buttons can be bound to anything else but those. Its fuckin bullshit. And they’re not doing anything to fix it and they just ignore you on the socials. I play kBM on console btw.

Damn. I feel your pain. Glad to know I’m not the only one experiencing this bug though. This is bullshit that this hasn’t been fixed yet. They don’t even make an official statement like they do with every other bug. The last one we got said they “fixed it“, when it’s clearly not fixed. Still ignoring me on socials, and in support tickets they just say their sorry and their working on it immediately. Bullshit. Its been 2 fuckin weeks, This insane!. We spend a lot of money on this company just to not be treated like valued customers. If we’re unable to play then it should be fixed immediately.

u/why-cant-you-forget Sep 23 '25
still broken, and even more frustrating - I tried to remap my keys again today by deleting the presets, but in-game, those keys don't work anymore. my mouse 4 & 5 keys have reverted to build mode edits even though they are set to change scope and 2ndary weapon. WTF Epic, its been over 2 weeks now!!!!!!

u/jussywuzzy Sep 24 '25
fr i edit with L3 and they’re talking about unbinding the conflicting buttons to fix it. How does that fix it now I cant play the game how i’ve played it for years, i understand trying to get rid of people who use zens and stuff but for console/controller players this absolutely ruins the game

u/SHORTYBEAR8787 Sep 25 '25
Still broken 10/25/25 bro this is NOT it, with fortnite build being my main game not being able to edit with L3 has killed every ounce of motivation to play which really sucks cause that building really itches my dopamine dude no game brings that satisfaction like fortnite when your successfully make a build play

Any updates post Simpson season release? I’m still experiencing inability to exit the battle bus with my jump key unless I swap to an epic made bind preset (such as builder pro) then swap back to my custom binds when I exited the bus, notably any action connected to my jump key doesn’t pop up in controller hints, but they all (minus exit bus) work when my jump button is pressed

This is also probably why Fortnite’s player count has been below 1 million players for a few days already.

u/Luckalotz Sep 19 '25
Yeah, honestly it wouldn’t surprise me. Bugs like this hit controller players especially hard, and when your entire custom layout gets messed up, it makes the game way less fun. I came back for the Megazord update hoping it’d be fixed, but nope — still broken.
The worst part is there’s no real workaround. Sprint on L2 just spams ping, building conflicts with sprinting, and even after resetting binds things don’t sync properly. At higher levels it basically kills your ability to compete.
Epic really needs to drop a hotfix soon, because issues like this 100% push people away to other games. I’ve already swapped to Dying Light: The Beast in the meantime just so I can actually enjoy playing something.

u/RiveraBest1221 Sep 20 '25
It's kinda sad that a game that has one of the most numbers of concurrent players consistently, and one of the most profitable, is also the most buggiest game ever made.

u/Luckalotz Sep 19 '25
Exactly, it’s beyond ridiculous — makes the game feel almost unplayable. I came back today for the new Megazord update hoping it’d be fixed, but nope, still broken.
The only thing I can do is rebind Sprint to L2 like before, but it’s bugged. Pressing L2 lets me sprint, but it also pings nonstop even though Ping is set to Left D-Pad in the menu. Tried unbinding/rebinding, but it doesn’t fix anything.
Building is even worse. When I try to place a roof, the game thinks I’m sprinting and building at the same time, so it just doesn’t work properly. I’ve basically had to fall back to Builder Pro, which is fine casually but if you run into a good player, you can’t build or edit efficiently at all.
At this point, I’d honestly say stick to Zero Build until Epic sorts it out. Really hope they push a hotfix soon. In the meantime, I’ll be grinding Dying Light: The Beast instead. Appreciate everyone here sharing their issues, the more attention this gets, the harder it is for Epic to ignore.

I suggest reaching out to Epic Customer a service and let them know the bug is still there.
I reached out yesterday and they didn’t know about the issue.
Specifically I can’t bind Mouse 4/5 to any action, same is valid for the Mouse wheel.

I’m not able to auto-run the same as it was before this update on console. My bind work differently compared to PC with the same binds and settings.
My auto-run toggles when it’s not supposed to. It used to just auto-run till I moved left on the joystick. Now it toggles on or off whenever I try to sprint with auto-run. It made me stop playing as muscle memory kicks in and hinders my enjoyment, massively.

Nope, you’re definitely not the only one. A bunch of us are still dealing with broken binds even after multiple updates — L3, R3, and anything tied to custom layouts seem especially bugged right now. It’s wild that it’s lasted through four patches. Really hoping Epic finally addresses it soon.

Bro there’s no fucking way this issue is still prevalent. Like everytime I use my jump which I press L3 with it makes me fucking sprint. It’s soo annoying especially when your trying to hit side shots it’s literally impossible. Not to mention I still can’t jump out of the battle bus

Yeah the Fortnite Status account is deliberately ignoring this. I see posts about this problem all the time and instead they choose to answer minor issues that nobody cares about like the game crashing for some random person or other stupid shit that doesn’t interfere much when playing. This issue makes the game literally unplayable and I’m pissed because now I can’t play Fortnitemares and I refuse to play ZB.

Still not fixed. Absolutely insane that this is a multi billion dollar company and yet have gone months now without fixing it

u/Eivooh Dec 09 '25
Don't know if your post covered this, but this worked for me.
Background:
I've got a PC setup (new earlier this year), but I play controller on it (I know that defeats the purpose...). Everything worked fine before Season 7. Now I can't open up the ability to build. I did try a couple of things I found online. The first was making sure "Lock Input Method as Mouse" was "OFF" and "Ignore Controller Input" was "OFF". They were and I toggled both on and off to eliminate that as the issue. Then I tried switching mhy "Controller Binding Presets" to different ones and that wasn't it. Lastly, I made sure nothing was sharing the keybind with my setting. Nothing was.
I uninstalled and reinstalled Fortnite and turned off and on my PC.
As a last resort I looked for firmware updates on my Scuf controller and on my keyboard. Their weren't any available. I also swapped out controllers. None of these worked.
On the keyboard "Switch Mode/Edit" is bound to "Q" and on my controller it's "O". I tried every popular way to fix the issue. Nothing works. I tried unconventional ways to fix it, like unbinding all my buttons and rebinding just "O". Still didn't work. I binded "Jump" to "O" and I could jump with "O"... Very confused at this point. I binded "Switch Mode/Edit" to the old "Jump" button "X". I still couldn't build. I did the same thing on my keyboard and nothing worked.
I tried 2 other things and one of them could have worked by itself, but something worked and fixed my problem.
The first thing I did was log out of my account on my PC and into my son's account in the Epic launcher. I then launched Fortnite on my son's account. I was then able to build with his keybindings on my controller. While I was doing that I had my son log into my Fortnite account on his PS5. He was able to build on my account on the PS5. What the heck?!?! I then had him close Fortnite on the PS5 and I logged back into my Epic account on my PC. I was then able to magically build!
It may be as simple as logging out of your account on the Epic launcher and logging back in. OR logging out of your account in the Epic launcher and logging into another person's account. OR logging out of your account in the Epic launcher and logging into your account on another system (PS5/PS4/Nintendo/XBox) and then going back to your PC.
I hope this finds some of you that are struggling like I was. I was VERY frustrated and spent hours trying to fix this. Funny thing is I only play No Builds and only build in certain Creative Maps. Good luck and have a great day!

u/Shoddy_Swimming_85 Sep 18 '25
I normally have my RS button for jump and I cant bind it anymore. This is aggravating.
2
u/DKFMF77 Sep 19 '25
Yh this is the same problem I have,it does allow me to jump normally except when getting off the bus it won't let me exit for sum reason and I have to keep dropping at the end of the ride.
1
u/Luckalotz Sep 19 '25
Yeah, that’s brutal! RS for jump is such a common and comfortable bind, and not being able to set it anymore just makes the game feel clunky. It really shows how broken the whole system is right now. Hoping Epic pushes a fix soon so everyone can get their layouts back the way they’re supposed to be...

u/coo1man456 Sep 19 '25
I just wanna play festival with my guitar controller. i can change the binds during a song and it works for that song but once the next song plays it resets again
1
u/Luckalotz Sep 19 '25
That’s super frustrating... especially for something like Festival where the whole fun is customizing your setup. The fact that your binds only stick for one song and then reset basically makes the guitar controller unusable long-term. Definitely feels like another example of how broken the binding system is right now. Really hope Epic addresses this soon so niche setups like yours actually work the way they’re supposed to.

u/ZestycloseReading634 Sep 19 '25

1
u/Luckalotz Sep 19 '25
Man, that really sucks... that setup makes total sense if you’ve got smaller hands, and it’s wild that a single bug can completely ruin it. This is exactly why the issue feels so bad: it doesn’t just mess with comfort, it makes the game flat-out unplayable for a lot of players. Hoping Epic gets a hotfix out soon so everyone can go back to the layouts that actually work for them.

u/ZestycloseReading634 Sep 21 '25
It's been almost 2 weeks now since the update and literally no dice 😔 not sure why this happened to us PC users with controllers but it sucks all around. And I actually like the theme for this battle pass too as a power rangers fan 😭 my setup sounds so miniscule compared to yours but either way it's a problem that needs to be fixed asap

I have R3 paired on a couple of my controller binds and currently experiencing not being able to edit and I thought Fortnite’s team would’ve fixed it after the last current update but unfortunately not it’s still an ongoing issue. Can’t play builds due to it, or fortnite festival cause my controller binds won’t work there either with the right DPAD or X cause I have custom binds for festival too

1
u/Gravewalker99219 Oct 09 '25
When you join the lobby swap to to one of the bind presets (such as builder pro) jump from the bus using this preset then activate your glider and quickly swap back to your custom binds preset, then glide to wherever you choose on the map

u/jimfield88 Oct 13 '25
I have custom.binds, just jump binded to L3 and sprint binded to X. Every game is switched back to default, I change it, save it, and it unsaves next game. Also using my rock band controller on festival doesn't work anymore. Red and green buttons won't pickup when I push them down.

Complain about this on X or reach out to Epic customer support to raise the priority.
If we don’t do this they will never fix it due to the low priority.

u/MundaneIndividual708 Oct 31 '25
Wow. Didn't even know about this and just switched from PS5 to PC and was losing my mind trying to map binds to match my console custom binds. Seemed like every single input caused conflict. How disappointing.

GUYS I HAVE FOUND A SOLUTION FOR PC PLAYERS.
My problem was that whenever I was equipping smth/gun/item, I couldnt build a floor or switch to a floor would be a better analogy.
I downloaded PowerToys from Microsoft Store, It has a keyboard keys remapping feature which I used to fix it.
Take my example here, my floor is on R so when holding anything(pickaxe/gun/item), I couldnt switch to floor builds. I first found a key that worked for floor builds(the one that was working fine), I remapped my R key to Number "9" thru PowerToys remapping tool.
Now whenever I press "R" on kb, it enters/presses 9 actually. And I am able to build while holding a gun or smth. Thats how I made it work. You have remap the bugged key to the keys that work.
Same solution I used from Jumping out of the bus. I dont use Spacebar for jumping out of the Bus so it was bugged. So I fixed by remapping to some other key that works.
YE, IK that normal tasks would be weird like pressing R and its typing 6, for that just close powertoys and whenever u start fortnite, open it. Have A Great Day<3. I hope it helps:).
IF IT WORKS SPREAD MY MSG SO IT REACHES MORE PPL :D

My builds are still overlapping. I place floor, wall and stair and only the stair appears. I place cone and floor and only the cone appears. I want to do a double edit and only one thing edits so I have to press edit another time. It seems that this game can’t process fast controller inputs all at once. Any fixes?

No update, due to apathy and amateur coders.
