Fortnite is one of the most popular games and one I play with my friends when we want a simple, easy night of multiplayer gaming. However, it isn't without its errors due to the game's online nature. While many of these issues can appear, the blue screen error annoys me the most. If you've also encountered this, you may be wondering how to fix stuck your blue screen in Fortnite—specifically on Xbox.
How to fix stuck on Blue Screen in Fortnite
The blue screen error is annoying, especially when you can hear the sounds taunting you while you cannot play. There seems to be an easy fix for this by forcing a power cycle and clearing the cache, but this doesn't work for everyone and not every time.
That said, give this a try to fix the Fortnite stuck on blue screen issue for Xbox.
- Press and hold the Xbox power button.
- Unplug the power cord when it turns off.
- Leave unplugged for at least a minute.
- Plug the cord back in and turn on your Xbox.
Other users have reported success by changing the user or language. You can also try uninstalling and reinstalling Fortnite.
What causes Fortnite to get stuck on blue screen?
I've personally encountered the infamous blue screen more after the Chapter Four Season Three update, but it has occurred before. While the cause of the issue isn't exact, it typically happens at start-up.
One way you can prevent Fortnite from getting stuck on the blue screen is by shutting Fortnite down each time you finish playing. Leaving it in a suspended state seems to increase the odds of a blue screen happening.
