Fortnite Leak Suggests More Bad News for Android Users

As Epic continues to keep quiet about when Fortnite will finally arrive on Android, leaks have confirmed various aspects about the game’s Android launch. The latest leak, from a website called XDA Developers, claims that Fortnite will be released on Samsung devices on August 24. That’s not all, though, as the leak also suggests that Fortnite Android may not be available on the Google Play Store.

Will there be a Fortnite on Android beta?
Again, no word on this. If reports that the Android version will first launch as a 30-day timed exclusive on the Samsung Galaxy Note 9 are true, then this could act as a beta, replacing the invite-only period that Epic implemented when the iOS version first came out.

What devices will be compatible with Fortnite on Android?
Again, Epic hasn’t provided much information on which phones will be able to run Fortnite, but XDA Developers dug around in the source code for the game’s website to uncover a list of around 40 supported devices.
