Is the Fortnite app available worldwide? Countries explained

However, we have bad news for those living outside the EU. The Fortnite app can only be downloaded by customers from the European Union.

So if you are in the US, UK (unfortunately) or anywhere outside the EU, you will not be able to download the Fortnite app. It will be impossible to pass Apple’s region check.

If anything changes and Fortnite becomes available for download in other locations, we will be sure to update this page.
