How to play Fortnite on iPhone using GeForce Now
Fortnite is undeniably one of the most popular video games, but you may have noticed it's not on the App Store.
But there's still a way to play Fortnite on your iPhone thanks to Nvidia's GeForce Now cloud gaming service.
Download GeForce Now on iPhone
