Im having the same issue its only happened when i’m in Zero build battle royale. Its happened 3 times so far ; once a couple days ago when my controller bugged out and it gave me an error code on my xbox saying “You need a controller to play this game”. The second time was today when it did the same thing after it alerted me my controller batteries were low , and then the third time about 20 minutes later when my controller died mid-game. Usually this has never been a problem I just pop some new batteries in and carry on playing. Unfortunately not the case. Each time I was playing duos and my teammate said i was still in game, i could still move but on my end there was that same underwater screen. I can’t even exit the match I have to exit the whole game and then open fortnite again.

No, it’s on battle Royale anytime my controller would die or say you need a controller to play this game and have me re sign in and put me to that screen.
