Yes, Fortnite fully supports crossplay.
Yes, Fortnite supports full crossplay across PC, Xbox One+, PlayStation 4+, Nintendo Switch+, Mobile. This means you can play with friends regardless of their platform. All the available platforms can play together. Luckily, cross-progression is enabled, keeping your unlocks synced everywhere.
Fortnite is available on the following platforms:
Fortnite features full crossplay across all available platforms through the Epic Games account system. Players can squad up with friends regardless of their platform, and crossplay is enabled by default. The game uses a unified matchmaking system where mixed parties are matched based on the highest-performing platform in the squad - for example, if a mobile player joins a PC player, they'll enter PC lobbies. Fortnite supports crossplay in all game modes including Battle Royale, Zero Build, Creative, LEGO Fortnite, Fortnite Festival, and Rocket Racing. Voice chat works seamlessly across all platforms.
Fortnite is an online-only game requiring a constant internet connection. There is no offline mode available. Players can play solo in Battle Royale or other modes, but must be connected to Epic's servers.
Fortnite supports local split-screen co-op on PlayStation 4/5 and Xbox One/Series X|S consoles. Two players can play together using separate controllers and Epic Games accounts. To enable split-screen: launch Fortnite on the main player's account, connect the second controller, and sign in the second player. Split-screen works in Battle Royale (Duos/Squads), Zero Build, LEGO Fortnite, and some Creative maps. It does NOT work on PC, Nintendo Switch, Mobile, or in Solo/Ranked modes.
The main concern with Fortnite crossplay is the performance gap between platforms. PC players can easily achieve 144+ FPS with mouse and keyboard precision, while consoles are usually locked around 30-60 FPS. Mobile and Switch players are forced into crossplay lobbies despite hardware disadvantages. Epic uses skill-based matchmaking to balance this, but the FPS and input method differences remain significant.
Yes, Fortnite supports full crossplay between PC, PlayStation, Xbox, Nintendo Switch, and Mobile. You just need to add them as Epic Friends and invite them to your party.
PlayStation and Xbox players can disable crossplay in settings, though this increases queue times. PC, Switch, and Mobile players cannot disable crossplay.
Yes, Fortnite supports full cross-progression through your Epic Games account. Your level, Battle Pass progress, V-Bucks (except on Switch), and cosmetics carry over between all platforms.
Epic Games restricts this to maintain faster matchmaking times. However, the game uses skill-based matchmaking to balance the performance differences between platforms.
Only if you party up with a PC player. If you play solo on console with crossplay enabled, you'll typically match with other console players unless you're in Ranked mode, which is always crossplay.
