Fortnite Is Back On iPhone After 4 Years, Depending On Where You Live
The Epic Games Store has entered the mobile space. Starting today, Android and iOS users in Europe can download the Epic Games Store for mobile, through which they can access Fortnite, Rocket League Sideswipe, and the brand-new mobile version of Fall Guys. This includes the first updated version of Fortnite for iOS in four years, just in time for the Marvel-centric Absolute Doom–it’s poetic, since the last update for Fortnite iOS occurred just before the start of the previous Marvel season during Chapter 2.
Aside from the free rewards that we’ll get to in a moment, the biggest item here is the arrival of the mobile version of Fall Guys–it’s the same game, now on your phone. All your cosmetic items carry over, and Fall Guys has full cross-progression and cross-platform play between the mobile and console/PC versions.
Android users will be moving on from the old Epic Games Launcher, which simply allowed you to install and update Fortnite and Rocket League Sideswipe. The Epic Games Store for mobile is intended as an alternative app store, similar to the well-established Amazon Appstore for Android, so the idea is that it will also offer many games from other developers and publishers.
