As players excitedly jump into a new era of Fortnite with the launch of Chapter 2, for a few the enthusiasm is immediately being dampened when they encounter a distracting issue with the size of their screen. Try not to worry too much, as there are steps that can be taken to help remedy this issue. As such, here’s how to change screen size in Fortnite Season 11.
Fortnite Season 11 screen size fix for PC
If you’re playing on PC it’s possible that Epic Games’ soft Fortnite reset might have reverted and/or changed a few of your game settings. One such setting is windowed mode, which appears to have been enabled for select players. Fortunately, this is very easily fixed by paying a visit to the in-game settings menu and enabling fullscreen mode to have your game once again display correctly. Here’s the exact process:
- From the Fortnite main menu, open the “Settings” screen
- Navigate to the “Video” tab
- Locate the “Window Mode” option
- Switch from “Windowed” to “Fullscreen” by clicking the right arrow
Fortnite Season 11 screen size fix for PS4

- From the Fortnite main menu, open the “Settings” screen
- Navigate to the “Game” tab
- Toggle “Uncap Framerate” to “On”

This process should force your screen resolution when playing the game to reset, and thus correct itself. At this stage, feel free to go back and revert the settings without consequence.
Fortnite Season 11 screen size fix for Xbox One
Xbox One players might be encountering the same problem, but they’ll need to implement a fix outside of the game. Once again, here’s the full means with which to fix this error on Xbox:

- Navigate to the “System” tab and select “Settings”
- Navigate to “Display & sound”

- Continue pressing “Next” until calibration is complete
You may need to repeat the process, but eventually, you should be back to playing Fortnite properly.
