Try reducing the in-game graphics settings. Even on a beast like the PS5, sometimes dialing down the settings can smooth things out.
Have you tried restarting your PS5? Sometimes a good ol' reboot can work wonders for performance issues.
Check if there are any updates for Fortnite or the PS5 system software. Keeping things up-to-date can often solve lag problems.
Hot take: Maybe it's just a skill issue. Just kidding, but seriously, check if the lag persists on other games too to rule out wider issues.
