If you’re still waiting to get into the Fortnite beta on Android, now you can finally play the battle royale game on your phone. Today Epic announced that the Android version of the game is open to everyone with a compatible device, so you no longer require an invite to play. (You can find a list of supported Android phones on Epic’s site.) Fortnite for Android first launched back in August exclusively for Samsung Galaxy devices, before opening up to more smartphones a few days later. Unlike most Android games, it has its own installer, so you won’t find it in the Google Play store. You can find step-by-step instructions for getting it up and running right here — though if you’re using an older phone, don’t expect Fortnite to look amazing.
