Fortnite Battle Royale on mobile can now be played on your iPhone starting today.

Earlier this week Epic Games unveiled that Fortnite would be launching on iOS and Android this year with an invite-only test on iOS starting first.

Well that test is here and players who have signed up are already getting a chance to try out the game on their mobile devices.

To celebrate Epic Games has released a trailer video showing off mobile gameplay of Fortnite on an iPhone X. Incredibly, it looks like the game runs exactly the same way as it does on the PS4, Xbox One and PC.

What is Fortnite Battle Royale?

In what might be one of the shrewdest business decisions we’ve ever seen Fortnite’s developers Epic Games announced last year that it would be launching a free-to-play version of the game called Battle Royale.

Set in a huge map this version of the game puts 100 players against each other. The players then have to fight each other all the while contending with the fact that the map is shrinking.

To win the game you have to be the last person standing, either through hiding or by eliminating everyone else in your way.
