Fortnite Android Might be Released sometime in Season 5

Fortnite is the most popular and possibly the most successful game of 2018 so far. Fortnite has made the battle royal genre the most popular gaming genre right now. Every developer is trying to somehow incorporate a battle royal mode into their game. Battle Royal is the hot stuff and it doesn’t seem like its going to die off very soon. Fortnite expanded into other platforms after its success on the PC, Xbox One, and PS 4. Fortnite expanded to the mobile market a few months ago by releasing Fortnite on IOS but not on Android. Gamers have been waiting for an Android release of Fortnite Battle Royal for a long time now, and it seems like the wait is close to being over as latest data mine leaks suggest that Fortnite is going to come out for Android during season 5. 

YouTuber Tracker Network did some digging in Fortnite’s latest update and found three files that red Android_Engine.ini, Android_Game.ini, and AndroidRuntimeOptions.ini. According to this YouTuber, we should expect to see Fortnite Battle Royal for Android sometime in this seasons. 

YouTuber Tracker Network said,“So sometime during this season or this major patch or major version of Fortnite Battle Royale we should expect to see an Android release of Fortnite Battle Royale to all Android devices, And that’s huge guys because – as big as iOS is – Android is just as big across the entire world. It’s just not as big in North America.”

Fortnite Battle Royal has been doing very well. According to a recent survey, Fortnite has made $1B through microtransactions alone in its battle royal mode. That’s not all Fortnite is also bringing new players to consoles. Super Data wrote, “Fortnite’s success has been impacting the console market as a whole. The game has brought in more players to console- particularly lapsed users.”
