When is Fortnite coming back to iOS?

Epic Games recently revealed that Fortnite will be available on iOS devices, but there’s a catch. Here’s a quick guide that will tell you when you can play the popular battle royale on your Apple devices.

Fortnite has become one of the most popular battle royale titles over the years, with a global fanbase across every platform. The game recently saw a surge in the number of players following the OG season and the dawn of LEGO Fortnite.

Following a legal dispute between Apple and Epic Games, Fortnite was removed from iOS devices. You can still play the game on Apple devices via cloud gaming services like GeForce NOW, but when will the game be natively available on iOS devices?

Fortnite iOS return date

There is no fixed date for Fortnite to return on iOS devices for now. However, in a post on X (formerly Twitter), Epic Games has confirmed that the game will return to iOS devices in Europe only.

This information comes in the wake of a new law that the European Union is passing, which will allow Epic Games to release Fortnite on iOS devices in Europe. However, the developers will also be maintaining a dedicated store for the said devices.

Remember Fortnite on iOS?

How bout we bring that back.

Later this year Fortnite will return in Europe on iOS through the @EpicGames Store.

With the Apple iPhone 15 Pro Max capable of running AAA titles, Fortnite should run smoothly on the device. That aside, it’s unlikely that the game will be too demanding in terms of performance while running on other iOS devices.

Considering that there are still some legalities that the developers need to iron out, a clearer picture of Fortnite coming to Apple devices remains unavailable. It will be interesting to see how things pan out in the near future.
