Fortnite was banned in Google and Apple's app stores after the game changed its payment methods, which led to the issue. According to Lifehacker, Fortnite's publisher, Epic, plans to sue both companies to retaliate.
Here's a quick guide on how to sideload the Epic Games Store app:
1) You need to install the "EpicGamesStore.APK file" by going to Fortnite.com/android. After that, the QR code must be scanned using your phone's camera.
2) Once the installation is complete, find the APK located on your device's "Downloads" folder, tap install, or click the download notification.
3) To "install apps from unknown sources," you need to confirm it if prompted and then follow the on-screen instructions.
4) Access the Epic Games app.
5) To download the game, you need to tap the Fortnite banner and click "Install" option. It will take a few minutes before it is finished.
6) You can sign in using your Epic account after the installation is complete.
