Playing Fortnite is a little bit different for pc players. Console players have an easy life when it comes to playing Fortnite. They just need to download the game and they can enjoy the game.

But for pc players, they need to have a computer with the specifications to support the game. See minimum requirements PC

In order to run Fortnite at a minimum:

  • you’ll need a 2.4GHz processor on Windows 7/8/10 or Mac, 4GB of RAM
  • and at least an Intel HD 4000 video card or equivalent

Playing Fortnite with these specifications won’t give you the best gaming experience but it will allow you to play the game.
