More than that, oh my gosh! Bloody moment, really! UK Fortnite players have been freezing their stocks since the game was looking at a huge October return on iOS phones for maybe drops the Government bombshell, suddenly, now that would be the year 2026. Can you believe that? That year: twenty-twenty-bloody-six.
The news landed in like a rogue grenade in a solo match, and the gamers? Not pleased at all. The original tweet from ShiinaBR, the Oracle of Fortnite leaks, went viral on the internet, and the replies: pure Comedy-Crass Chaos, if you will.
And now, for SamLeakss, still raging: “Oi mate this psses me off. Right, I’ve ‘ad it up to ‘ere with this absolute codswallop.” Classic. The replies to this were even more enjoyable, with AXIOM_Protocol coming back at him: “Oi mate, what a load o’ fin’ bollocks. They said October, now it’s 2026? You takin’ the piss?” The energy here is truly present. And honestly? So relatable.
It’s not just the British losing their marbles: players worldwide are confused at this delay. Soulbound_TV really nailed it: “2026? I’ll be building in the afterlife by then 😩.” Same, bro. Same.
The kicker: some players have even gotten themselves a step ahead of this, with MtHackzz flexing through the delay: “Im in uk and i have it just change ur app store region not that hard💀.” A smart move, but it’s sad players have to resort to technical solutions because of some bureaucracy.
All the others: “who plays Fortnite on iPhone anyway?” (shoutout to Anandh_KS). But seriously-mobile gamers are out there, and they are serious about their gaming. Three years of telling them to wait? Ouch.
So why the delay? The UK government’s dragging its feet on making a decision about… something. The details of the impasse are unclear, but the end result is evident: No Fortnite on the iPhones, ever. And the gamers? They are not taking this lying down. The level in replies is half fury, half memes, and full of disbelief.
Some highlights:
– “Delete ts right now im not kidding” (the_real_pavitr, dramatic yet valid).
– “Why you talking like your from sea of thieves” (tique70, calling out Sam’s pirate-esque rant).
– “Not all of us talk like this 😭” (That1Stargazer, defending British honor).
And some random crypto wallet help from WilsonAdam73262. Sure.
For UK mobile gamers, this delay is a massive L. It’s a whole thing: rage, comedy, and mostly the much-louder-than-it-should-be “wait, 2026? Seriously?” kind of moments.
Sit tight with the popcorn, people. I expect this to run for a while. Or, if you wanted to go full MtHackzz: change your region, or cry-in-your-tea. Your call.
