Sign-Ups For 'Fortnite Battle Royale' Mobile On iOS Are Live, Here's How To Get It

If you want to see what Fortnite Battle Royale looks like on a mobile device, now's your chance -- at least to try. Developer Epic Games just opened up sign-ups for the iOS pilot program for the just-announced mobile version of the massively popular battle royale game -- all you have to do is go to this website and fill out the forms to get a chance at being one of the first few to try it out.
To participate, you'll need an internet connection, iOS 11, and at least an iPhone 6S/SE, iPad Mini 4, iPad Pro, iPad Air 2 or any 2017 iPad to participate. iPhones 7+ will also work. Remember, this is a limited access pilot program, so you're really just entering into a lottery by giving Epic your email. The chosen few will receive emails when they can start playing, which Epic seems to suggest is in the near-future. Given the social nature of this game, they'll also receive extra codes for their friends.
If you don't get a code right away, Epic will be sending out future waves after this initial one, and of course the game will eventually see a full commercial release. At this early stage we can expect a slightly less-polished product than what Epic will eventually release to the public.

An Android version will follow in the coming months.
The main thing I'll be looking at when I (eventually) get my hands on the game will be how well the control scheme translates to touch, particularly since the game relies on switching back and forth between shooting and a building mechanic that requires a certain degree of speed and dexterity to pull off in any kind of competitive way. I'm not expecting controls to be as responsive or as accurate as a mouse and keyboard on PC, but I'll still be looking for a baseline level capable of maintaining the same essential experience of the game across platforms.
That's Epic's vision, after all: the makers of Unreal Engine want to show off a kind of platform-agnostic development that means Fortnite will be the same game whether you're playing on iOS, Android, PC, Xbox One or PS4. It's a bold idea, but one that the company has been working at for a long time. We'll get to see the next phase soon.
