Epic return: Fortnite’s back on iPhones, iPads via Nvidia service & Xbox Cloud

By Joe Rossignol, MacRumors

Following several months of beta testing, Nvidia on Thursday evening announced that popular battle royale game Fortnite is now available to all GeForce NOW subscribers via Safari on iOS, complete with optimized on-screen touch controls and game menus.

Fortnite had been unavailable to play on the iPhone and iPad since Apple removed the game from the App Store in August 2020, after developer Epic Games added a direct payment option to the game in violation of the App Store’s rules. However, the game can now be streamed on iOS via GeForce NOW or Microsoft’s Xbox Cloud Gaming.

MacRumors tested Fortnite on iOS via GeForce NOW while it was in beta for those interested in a hands-on look at the gameplay experience.
