Epic Games recently introduced the 60FPS gameplay support on Fortnite for iOS, but didn’t bring it to the game’s Android version. And if Epic Games’ fondness for iOS is anything to go by, at least when it comes to Fortnite, support for 60FPS gameplay is not coming to Android anytime soon. And even if it does, it will most likely be limited to Android flagships.
However, if you are still hopeful that 60FPS support for Fortnite will arrive on your smartphone in the near future, just take a look at the game’s history on Android. Fortnite became widely available on the iOS platform back in April, but arrived on Android four months later, but was exclusive to Samsung’s Galaxy smartphones for some time. And when Epic Games eventually brought the battle royale fun to Android, the gameplay experience proved to be a terrible mess.
Fortnite hit the 15 million installation mark on Android in less than a month, but it was still not available for all Android smartphones due to hardware limitations. Epic Games finally ditched the invite-only format and opened Fortnite’s beta program for all Android users in October. So, you can imagine the amount of time it took to optimize the game for Android smartphones with different hardware.
