All right, so the word is out—with the grand title of Fortnite returning, it will finally be there on Brazilian iPhones by the 21st of August. Yep, the lines hold; Brazilian wizards can finally jump right back into bat royale madness sans carnivals of sideloading and who-knows-what-else. And boy, the reactions? It’s just pure mayhem.
To begin with, the tweet that started it all was a pure skinny tweet: The Brazilian flag emoji (🇧🇷) along with the news that Fortnite will be back on Brazilian iPhones by August 21. No rhetoric, no explanations, straight up clarity. But the replies? Just golden. Some were hyped; others were just confused. Some, well-let us say they had very creative viewpoints.
One user, @AnyaOnnon, went all out with, “O BRUNO TA EM CASA !!! FESTA NO BRASIL!!” If you don’t speak Portuguese, this roughly translates to “Bruno’s home!!! Party in Brazil!!” And honestly? Such is the vibe. On the other hand, @ClancyFNC went short with, “BRUNINHO CHEGOU PORRA!”, which almost translates to, “For God’s sake, Fortnite is back!”
But not everyone was screaming with joy. @Zkimdracula threw his sarcasm into the pit: “brazil? nobody plays on that awful region😭😭” Ouch. Somebody’s salty. Then came @SeanDoggo, who unreservedly asked, “Why did Brazil not play by the rules?” Uhh… what rules, dude? Rules of hype? Because Brazil’s winning.
Then here comes the regional confusion. @Salvahqs chimed in just to have asked, “Does this include Argentina?” followed by @HanaBanananica with, “Is Argentina part of Brazil?” Spoiler alert: It certainly isn’t. Geography fail. Meanwhile, @SachinSherry1 went all-in with enthusiasm and asked, “What about India?” Bro, let’s finish one country at a time.
The random chaos on the reply list? Oh, hilarious. @UnhingedFN appeared with “Please be patient I have autism hat 💀,” which, what? Then there was @ShadowyMeowdas telling @ScruffyPlayz, “Someone just crouched right behind you so be careful Danny.” Spooky.
And the real MVP is @Soulbound_TV: “Queue the carnival builds and skybase samba 🏗️.” Because if Brazil is good at one thing, it’s throwing a party for Fortnite.
So what makes this such a big deal? Fortnite’s return to Brazilian iPhones means no more sideloading, no more weird workarounds, just easy access. And being one of the biggest gaming markets in the world, Brazil is really being placed right there. Huge. Like, HUGE!
Will this solve everything ruining Fortnite regionally? Probably not. People like @itzmeigsy and @Skuvie_ were pretty quick to ask about the UK, and @Jacobm14084 threw out “Brazil before Canada.” Priorities, y’all.
But hey, for now, let’s just celebrate that Brazilian iPhone gamers can finally get back to their Victory Royales without jumping through flaming hoops. And who knows? Maybe this is just the start for other regions to get their little bit of love.
Mark those calendars, then. August 21 is gonna be a great day for Brazil. And for anyone who’s not from Brazil? Well…keep waitin’.
PS: If you ever witness a skybase samba in your next match, you know whom to blame.
