Epic Games has announced that the Fortnite Battle Royale beta for Android devices will be kicking off this week.

The former Gears of War developer confirmed that invites will start rolling out this week, with select Samsung Galaxy users the first to be given a chance to get in on the action from today. Additional invites will be sent out in the next few days. 

If you're interested in giving Fortnite on Android a spin, then sign up for a chance to take part in the beta here.

Pleasingly, the Android version of Fortnite will include Cross Play and Progression with the PlayStation 4, PC, Switch, Xbox One, and iOS versions of the shooter.

You'll need to download the game from Fortnite.com, as it won't be available from the Google Play Store. 

While we're on the subject, the latest Fortnite update is out in the wild and includes a Double Barrel Shotgun and new limited-time mode.
