‘Fortnite’ might bypass Google Play Store when it launches on Android

Android users who have been waiting for Fortnite to come to the platform might not need to get the game from Google Play Store. A leak from xda-developers found lines in the game’s mobile page source text that had download instructions. There was an image that references security permissions, which are “necessary to install any app outside of the Play Store.” With Android being an open platform, it lets users download and run apps from any source, making this a possibility. Now, what could make Epic Games considered this move is the additional revenue they can get. Through Google Play, Epic would need to turn over 30% of its revenue to Google. We should find out later in the year when the game officially comes to Android.
