2018 was the year in which Fortnite, one of the biggest video game phenomena in recent years, appeared on mobile devices. On iOS we had it from April 2 and on Android we enjoyed it from August 9. But beware, only those who owned a Samsung Galaxy Note 9 had access to the game exclusively. Today it has more than a million downloads according to the Play Store and it is a free game although it is financed through purchases that we can make inside the game. The requirements to play it? Well, your mobile must have Android 64 bits installed with 5.0 Lollipop or higher, at least 3 GB of RAM and an Adreno 530, Mali-G71 MP20 or Mali-G72 MP12 GPU.
We believe that it is not necessary to tell what this Fornite is about, but if you have come to the article by chance and do not know what we are talking about, here is a small summary. In Fornite there can only be one left: it is a battle royale game mechanics in which all the characters have to die on a battlefield. Whoever remains on his feet is declared the winner. And this game is distinguished from other similar ones in that the player can build in real time while fighting. You can build barriers, forts, lookouts through which to stalk your enemies… in addition, for the game to ensure that you do not always stay in the same place, it forces players to concentrate, fleeing the eye of the storm, a meteorological phenomenon that erodes your life very quickly.
If you want to start playing with it, you just have to download the application from the Android Play Store. It has a weight of 45 MB (although, once installed, it will ask you for an additional file of almost seven and a half GB), it is not recommended for children under 12 years of age and it is free, although be careful with the purchases inside. Now, do you want to know how to improve the performance of Fornite on your mobile? Well, read on: we give you the seven keys so that the game can develop satisfactorily.

Activate the game mode of your mobile
If your mobile has a game mode, we advise you to activate it, since this function will adapt the terminal to the demands of the video game so that the experience runs smoothly. In the usual game mode of mobile phones, the mobile displays all its graphic and processor potential, dedicating it exclusively to the game, minimizing other processes and leaving other applications without potential. The brands that usually have game mode are Xiaomi, Samsung, Huawei, Honor… that is, the most common on the market. Look in your phone's settings and don't forget to activate it. Likewise, the game mode of mobile phones can also inhibit pop-up notifications, so keep that in mind while playing: if you wait for something important, it may happen to you.
Multisample Anti-Aliasing
Through this tool, which we can activate through the developer options of our phone, we will be forcing games that use the OpenGL ES 2.0 engine to improve the graphics and performance in general, to be able to play much more fluidly. To find this option, quite hidden, we first have to enable the developer options of your phone. A very simple procedure that is executed in the same way in the different mobile brands.
- To enable the developer options, we have to enter the settings of our mobile phone. In ' About the phone ', we have to locate the version number and click on it about seven times, until it appears that we have made the options appear. The captures may differ from the interface that you use on your mobile.
- Then, we have to look for the developer options on your mobile. To do this, type 'Developer options' or 'Developer options' in the search bar.
- Now, we search among all the multiple options that appear to us the one that responds to the name of 'Force MSAA 4x' and activates the switch. From now on, Fortnite will be much better on your mobile.
Reduce the quality of Fornite graphics
If your mobile does not support the higher quality Fornite graphics, the game settings allow you to adapt them to the needs of your device. This way, the terminal will not get so hot and you can play better, without lags or delays.
To adjust the FPS, the 3D animations and other settings related to the graphics, we must start the game and then click on the hamburger menu. Finally, we click on settings.
Change screen resolution
If your mobile allows you to change the screen resolution, you can try reducing it and thus see if the game works better on your device. On Android, this setting is usually found in the path 'Display'> 'Screen resolution'. Finally, choose the desired resolution and you're done.
Close all background apps
This trick can be applied not only to be able to play Fortnite more fluidly, but also to make the terminal go, in general, faster. Closing the applications that we do not use will be freeing the terminal of RAM memory occupied for nothing. It is very simple, you just have to open multitasking and discard the applications that you are not using at the time.
Play on WiFi whenever possible
WiFi networks are usually more stable than mobile networks and in the case of a game that needs the Internet to play as is the case with Fortnite, this is a vital question. Whenever you can, try to play connected to WiFi because the game will be more fluid and, in addition, you will not spend data on your rate.
Restart the mobile
If, after everything we have taught you, you still cannot play Fortnite smoothly and correctly, you can still use up one last cartridge: the vast majority of errors that occur in a mobile phone have their solution by restarting the terminal. It is an action that is recommended to do from time to time so that our equipment works correctly.
