Epic has yet to find a platform it hasn't wanted to put Fortnite on — only ones it wasn't allowed to put the game on — so its not surprising the developer is going all out with the Nintendo Switch 2. Not only will the Switch 2 version of Fortnite support both graphical and performance improvements that bring it in line with the PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X / S, it'll also offer mouse controls if you're playing with the Joy-Con 2.
Mouse control will let you aim with one or both Joy-Con 2 and navigate the UI with a cursor, bringing the console experience closer to how the game works on PC. "With mouse controls, the right analog stick will be disabled, and you’ll rotate your character by using the selected Joy-Con 2 controller(s) as a mouse," Epic says. The primary click will be assigned to the ZR button unless you're using the left Joy-Con 2, and you can swap which analog stick controls movements to accommodate whichever controller you want to use.
Without an extended period of time to try mouse control out, its hard to say whether it'll make Switch 2 Fortnite players more accurate, but there's other benefits to running the game on Nintendo's new console. For example, Fortnite on Switch 2 will run at 60 fps, at a 2,176 x 1,224 resolution while docked and a 1,600 x 900 resolution while undocked. The game will also support things like greater view distances, clothing physics and Nintendo's new GameChat social feature for streaming what you're playing to friends.
The game, as ever, remains completely free. If you managed to secure a Switch 2, though, you'll want to delete your old copy of Fortnite for Nintendo Switch after transferring your data from your old console to your new one. Graphical improvements and mouse control are only available from the Switch 2 version of the game, which you can download directly from the Nintendo eShop on June 5.
