Epic Games Announces Fortnite Battle Royale is Coming to iOS

“Fortnite” has now been downloaded more than 40 million times by January and it is the most watched game on live-streaming video platform Twitch. You can sign up for it on iOS here.

Epic Games has opened up the signup program for the iOS version of Fortnite: Battle Royale.

If you had told me when it launched after six years in development hell that Fortnite would become the biggest game in the world and playable on nearly everything apart from a potato, I wouldn’t have believed.

For now, Xbox One can play with PC, Mac and mobile, while PlayStation 4 players can play with PC, Mac and mobile.

The other day Epic Games announced that Fortnite Battle Royale would be coming to mobile devices.

The roughly 30-second trailer gives us a taste of what Fortnite will be like on mobile devices.

Squad play allows up to five players, be they friends formed before finding a match or strangers placed together during matchmaking, to form a team.

Over the past few months, Fornite has grown to become one of the most popular games in the world.
