News & Reviews:   Fortnite

When money is involved, things tend to escalate quickly. And things certainly escalated when Epic Games decided to implement its own in-app payment system for the mobile version of Fortnite. Now the game has been removed from both Apple App Store and Google Play Store.

Last week, Epic Games finally bit the bullet and released Fortnite on the Google Play Store. With the move, the mobile version of the game is now available for all smartphone users. This served as the perfect lead up to the FCNS Invitational, which is a Fortnite tournament that will begin next month.

Finally, after a super long overdue - Fortnite has officially made its way to the Google Play Store. Prior to that, mobile gamers needed to go to the Epic Games website and download the APK installer, third-party platforms, or even some "exclusives" such as Samsung Galaxy and HONOR smartphones. Well, looks like fans can have a breather now.

The hype for Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker hype continues to build up, with the latest piece of news of it being a Fortnite collab. A new in-game screenshot was shown on Twitter, depicting the use of lightsabers and blaster rifles from the Star Wars universe. The event will run from 14 to 23 December 2019.

Guess our wishes are coming true, Respawn Entertainment’s popular battle royale, Apex Legends will be coming to mobile phones soon. EA Games revealed their plans as part of a conference call which happened on the 7th of May.

Cross-play for Fortnite on all platforms is pretty fun but mobile players are at a disadvantage. I mean, try aiming and building on mobile compared to mouse and keyboard or even a controller and you’ll understand why. Patch 7.30 for Fortnite came out today and now mobile players can enjoy Bluetooth controllers to play their game!

Hey gamers! The Black Friday and Cyber Monday sales have just passed and I’m actually feeling my wallet to be a little lighter (or in case, empty, as I wait for my next paycheck to drop in). Oh well, I’m sure our tears would dry (temporarily) when our ordered packages come in or the intro scene of our just purchased games play on our screens. Unless you purchased Fallout 76. Then there’s no joy for you for sure.  As for me, I’m just smiling (and tearing up a little) whenever I lay my eyes on the Nvidia RTX 2070 GPU I just purchased. #PCmasterrrace!

Hey gamers! Last weekend was pretty intense with the KL Major rocking the Dota2 scene in our country. As someone who has seen many tournaments in her life, its safe to say that the KL Major is definitely one of the best tournaments I’ve seen in Malaysia thus far.
