Fortnite is returning on mobile devices again from August 16. The worldwide launch is available on Android, while only EU iPhone users can access it...
Now, the Fortnite mobile app is available to iOS in the EU. So, users from the European Union can download Fortnite from the mobile Epic Games Store. Requirements – mobile devices must have iOS 17.6 (or later version) and players must use the Safari browser.
But don’t think that iPhone is the only way to download the Fortnite app. Fans of Android games from around the world can also download Fortnite from the mobile Epic Games Store, available at Epic Games' website.
This news is very good. In essence, this is the first time Fortnite has returned to mobile platforms after being removed from Apple's App Store and Google Play in 2020.
Because previously, the only way to play Fortnite on mobile after its removal was through cloud gaming services (Xbox Cloud Gaming and Nvidia GeForce Now) for Apple devices. And at the same time, Android users could still download the app directly or use cloud streaming.
In addition to Fortnite, the company also confirmed that Fall Guys and Rocket League Sideswipe are now available for download on Android devices worldwide and EU iPhones through the Epic Games Store mobile app and the AltStore.
Note, that this is Fall Guys' first appearance on mobile following its initial release on PS4 and Windows in 2020 and subsequent ports to PS5, Switch, and Xbox in 2022.
Epic Games Founder and CEO Tim Sweeney praised the European Commission for fostering competition in the mobile ecosystem, allowing Epic Games to launch its store for iOS users in the EU.
Sweeney expressed gratitude and acknowledged that while progress has been made, the fight for competition and choice in the mobile market is ongoing...
