Fortnite Mobile is back in some countries, but not all of them. After the war was waged between Apple and Epic Games, the game was removed from the App Store. It has returned to the App Store in the European Union, which was a huge win for mobile gamers. Unfortunately, it’s still unavailable in the United States. Either way, there are ways to get the game. Here’s what you can do.

If you’re in the European Union, all you have to do is visit the App Store, search for Fortnite, and install it. It will work just as it did before the ban. Sadly, that does not apply to gamers in the United States unless they’re using a VPN, which is one workaround, but that requires a lot of effort with the Internet router and your iOS device, so it may not be worth it.
The most common method of working around this is to download and sign up for Signulous, a sideloading service that allows people to sideload games not on the App Store to their device. That includes Fortnite Mobile. This is not a free method, though. It costs $20 per year to subscribe.
You can also use the Xbox Cloud Gaming App on your iOS device. This grants access to Xbox games, of which Fortnite is one. This does come with a limit of one hour per day, but that’s at least a couple of Fortnite matches. Players can also re-queue to get back into a session once theirs expires. It’s an annoyance, but it’s the simplest way to get the game back on an iOS device.
Unfortunately, the options are very limited right now. However, with the European Union restoring the game, other places are probably not that far behind. One day, Fortnite Mobile will be back in the US and other countries. Until then, these workarounds should provide some access, albeit limited, to the game.
