'Fortnite' players on iPhone and iPad have less than a week before the game leaves them behind

When Apple yanked "Fortnite" from the App Store last week, the move had a ripple effect on the millions of people who already play the game on iPhones and iPad: When the next season launches on August 27, those players will be left in the past.Epic Games said in a blog post on August 20

. "Players on iOS devices will be left behind on Chapter 2 - Season 3 while everyone else jumps into the Chapter 2 - Season 4 launch on August 27." In short: When the next season goes live, iPhone and iPad players won't be able to move forward or play the next season with their friends on other platforms."Once Chapter 2 - Season 4 begins, players accessing 'Fortnite' will still be able to play the 13.40 version of 'Fortnite,'", "but will not be able to access any new content or the new Battle Pass. Cosmetic purchases will still work across all platforms.

There's another option for people who want to play the next season: Since "Fortnite" enables players to carry over progress between platforms, you could login through another platform — Xbox One, PlayStation 4, PC, Mac, Nintendo Switch, and even Android — and play the next season there. If and when Apple and Epic resolve the current squabble, your progress will presumably carry back to the iPhone and iPad versions of the game.

The update included this payment system that enabled players to bypass Apple's App Store and Google's Play Store.
