Review: Fortnite on Android brings authentic battle royale to (most of) the rest of us

Epic Games announced today that it is launching the beta for Fortnite battle royale on Android, starting with select Samsung devices. The Samsung devices will go live today with a wider Android beta beginning in the coming days.

Epic timed the announcement with the reveal of the latest Samsung Galaxy Note 9 smartphone, giving players with access to Samsung Galaxy devices first access to the popular free-to-play game, which is already out on the PC, consoles, and iOS devices. Purchasers of the new Samsung Note 9 or Galaxy Tab S4 will get access to the new Galaxy outfit.
