Step 4: Time to Drop in!

You’ve made it! Now for the fun part.

1. Pick Fortnite from your library, hit that launch button, and get ready to party.
2. Touch controls are your friend: Since you’re on a phone or tablet, you’ll be using touch controls. Don’t worry, it’s surprisingly intuitive. If something feels off, you can tweak the touch control settings in the GeForce Now app.

Quick Tips for Maximum Fun

• Internet is King: Make sure you’ve got a solid, speedy Wi-Fi connection. No one wants to freeze mid-fight, especially when you're about to claim a Victory Royale.

• Fine-Tune Your Settings: If the game feels a bit sluggish, head into the GeForce Now settings and tweak the stream quality, frame rate, and other stuff. Cranking these up too high might make your game lag, though, so find a sweet spot that works for you.

• Master the Touch Controls: Playing Fortnite on mobile takes some getting used to. Spend some time in creative mode or casual games to get a feel for it. Once you’ve got it down, you’ll be good to go!

By following these steps, you can enjoy Fortnite on your Android or iOS device using NVIDIA GeForce Now.
