In a competitive battle royale like Fortnite, knowing your opponent’s location can be crucial, as it allows you to plan whether to fight or flee. There’s a way to visualize footprints that makes it a lot easier than trying to anticipate and listen for audio cues.

Epic Games has added an accessibility option to Fortnite that allows players to both hear and see footprints. While the visual footprints won’t appear on the ground and directly lead you to an enemy’s location, they will let you know that there’s an enemy around you. This is especially useful if you don’t have the best audio setup, there’s a lot of background noise, or you have difficulty hearing.

Knowing where your opponent is coming from is one of the most important elements of Fortnite. Not only does it give you an idea of what to expect so you can prepare, but it also gives you the upper hand before a fight even begins. While most players rely on their headsets or speakers to determine where an enemy is based on the sound of their footsteps, some players have taken to using visual footsteps in Fortnite.

This is how you see footprints in Fortnite.
