Playing Fortnite on mobile phones is getting much better as the Nvidia GeForce Now rolls out support for the full hit game with touch controls on both Android and iOS.
As of today, Fortnite on GeForce Now works on Android and iOS with full touchscreen control. On Android, controls are available via the GeForce Now app, while iOS players can stream through Safari.
This rollout of touch controls was handled in collaboration with Epic Games as a method of offering the Fortnite experience to mobile gamers. Of course, Fortnite was officially available through both the Apple App Store and the Google Play Store for a while, but Epic’s feud with Google and Apple, respectively, resulted in the game being removed from both stores, completely blocking it for iOS users for a while. and leaves Android users for page loading.
To get started, sign up for GeForce Now and link your Epic Games account to start playing Fortnite. There is no waiting list, just log in and start playing.
Fortnite through GeForce Now streams through the cloud, but is still completely free to play. GeForce Now has a free level that supports gameplay sessions up to one hour at a time. The service offers an additional $ 10 / month “Priority” level, which unlocks six-hour sessions and fewer waiting lists, as well as ray-tracing graphics. The RTX 3080 level finally comes in at $ 20 / month with eight hours of sessions and 120fps gameplay support on supported devices.
Nvidia and Epic Games first announced a closed beta of Fortnite with touch controls earlier this year, and that beta apparently had over 500,000 participants. Those who participated in the beta will be offered a three-day Priority membership for free or an upgrade to the RTX 3080 level during the same time period, if you are already enrolled. Emails about it will be sent out over the next few days.
Microsoft also launched Fortnite for free on Xbox game streaming earlier this month.
