“As part of our mission to bring the joy and community of gaming to players wherever they are and to make gaming more accessible to people around the world, I’m excited to announce that we’ve partnered with Epic Games to make Fortnite available on supported browser-enabled devices for free with Xbox Cloud Gaming (Beta) in 26 countries,” said Catherine Gluckstein, Vice President and Head of Product of Xbox Cloud Gaming in a statement.
You only need two things to play in cloud-supported markets:
1.) A Microsoft account
2.) An iOS, iPadOS, Android phone or tablet, or Windows PC with internet access
No installation or memberships are required. All you have to do is go to Xbox.com/play on your web browser and sign in with your Microsoft Account. And you can play the game with native touch controls or a supported controller.
“It’s an important step to add a Free-to-Play title to the cloud gaming catalog as we continue our cloud journey. We’re starting with Fortnite and will look to bring more Free-to-Play games people love in the future. At Xbox we want to make gaming accessible to the 3 billion players around the world, and cloud has an important role in that mission. Quite simply we want you to have more choice in both the games you play and the way you choose to play them,” added Gluckstein.
