Unlike Apple’s operating system, Android has one of the most popular games of all time: Fornite can be installed on any mobile phone thanks to the APK that the company distributes, even on non-compatible mobile phones. Now, the company has announced the arrival of Epic Games Store, the official store that will distribute mobile games and which we have been waiting for since its confirmation a few months ago.
Besides the debut, the official announcement brings several good news in the form of highly anticipated titles: “Fall Guys” and “Rocket League Sideswipe” are coming. So you can download and play them from the new store, which will also keep “Fornite” for Android up to date.
The Epic Games Store has finally arrived on Android
In fact, this new Epic Games Store follows the same style as the launcher that allows us to install “Fortnite” on Android. In fact, it looks more like an update than a new application for himselfIn the official announcement, the company focuses on the debut of its store on Apple’s iPhone, which is only available in European territory where it is possible to install external applications and stores.
However, the video game store lands on Google’s operating system with the news of “Fall Guys” and the adaptation of “Rocket League” to mobile devices. To install it, it’s as simple as accessing the following link and accepting the download that our browser will offer.
This is, as usual with Epic, an APK that opens the door to the Epic Games Stores on our Android mobile. Remember to enable the unknown sources option to allow the browser to install it, and later grant the same permission to the store, in order to install the games.
We tested it and the truth is that the “new” store app and the titles offered work very well. Downloads are fastand in just a few minutes (depending on our internet connection) we will have the online platform game installed on our mobile.
