Surely you have already forgotten that there was a time when Fortnite it was a game that was available in the apple store and that you had it installed for months. Unfortunately, the storage space was getting smaller and you had no better idea than to remove it from the iPhone, so when the war between Epic Games and Cupertino broke out, you didn’t have time to download it again just before the ban of the App Store.
you can still play with Fortnite
Thus, more than two years after that terrible moment, iPhone and iPad users have a very difficult time getting back to use Fortnite on their devices since Apple has not opened its hand and has blocked any loophole for Epic Games to upload anything to the store digital. Does that mean that we should say goodbye to any possibility of having the game on our mobiles? Luckily the answer to that question is “No”.
Fortnite stay active on your iPhone although in a way that you don’t expect the same, since you won’t be able to download or install it the old way, so we had to look for an alternative that is still as useful and fun as ever, which is to resort to a system in the cloud through Microsoft’s famous Xbox Cloud Gaming, which is tied to the Game Pass subscription. If you have an account with this service, you can enjoy Fortnite on your iPhone without problems.
How to play with Fortnite on your iPhone?
The first thing you’re going to do is open your iPhone browserspecifically Safari, and copy and paste the following URL:
- https://www.xbox.com/es-es/play
Next it will ask you to create a shortcut on the home screen of iOS, in such a way that you will have an icon to touch to start a game in any game of the flat rate. When you have it already created, then it is time to go to put Fortnite again on your phone, performing the following steps:
- Open the Xbox Game Pass shortcut you created on the iPhone (or iPad) home screen.
- The sign in screen with your Microsoft account will appear.
- Once you have logged in successfully, go find Fortnite inside the catalog (When the service detects that you are connecting from an iPhone, it will show you the Epic Games game almost first).
- Click on the game and within the screen that describes its characteristics, you will see a green button Play (in this case you can do it without having a gamepad linked to the mobile because Fortnite has touch controls).
- Start the game.
There is another method to play which is to use GeForce NOW! is also a gaming service in the cloud, from Nvidia, and that rents you high-performance PCs to play with your account and (part of) your purchases on Steam.
