Fortnite on Android: Here's how to download the game

Fortnite, Epic's hit game, made its long-awaited debut on Android earlier this summer, but so far it was only available to users who received a beta invitation. This has changed and all Android owners can now download the beta version of Fortnite even without invitation, provided they have a compatible device. Here's how you can intervene.

Unlike most other games available on Android, Fortnite can not be downloaded through the Google Play Store. Earlier, Epic had announced that it was bypassing Google's App Store and offering the game directly to fans via its own website. If you want to download Fortnite on Android, all you have to do is go here on your phone and scan the QR code when prompted.

As stated before, Fortnite will not be compatible with all Android devices. You will need a "top of the line" Android smartphone to launch the game. Fortunately, the list of supported devices is quite long and described on the Epic FAQ page. Even if one of the phones is not in this list, you may be able to launch the game if your device meets the recommended minimum requirements below. specifications:

• Operating system: Android 8.0 or higher recommended, 64-bit
• RAM: 3 GB or more (4 GB recommended)
• GPU: Adreno 530 or higher, Mali-G71 MP20, Mali-G72 MP12 or higher

One of the reasons Epic ignores Google Play with the release of Fortnite is to bypass the "store tax" of 30% applied to all purchases. The developer also said that this transfer allowed him to "offer his games directly to customers", but that some disadvantages are not in question. Namely, this leaves the game exposed to security risks, while some Android apps that promise V-Bucks for free and other cheats are actually phishing schemes.
