Update: To play the game, users should at least have these specs: Android 5.0 Lollipop or higher, 3GB of RAM and 3GB of free storage, Adreno 530 GPU or better, Mali-G71 MP20, and Mali-G72 MP12 or better. From the looks of it, the game’s rather GPU intensive than CPU.
Moreover, the developer, Epic Games said that the game’s hitting Android devices on September 23rd, with the Galaxy Note 9 being first to get it for at least one month prior to the actual release, as rumored.
Epic Games has also confirmed that instead of downloading the game from the PlayStore users have to download it through their own website.
The good news here is that the game will support cross-platform play between users on PC, iOS, Android, Mac, Switch, and Xbox. Meaning, users playing the game on Android can team up with users on PC at the same time.

However, some devices like Huawei’s P20 series, Xiaomi’s entire mobile set, LG G7, HTC’s mobiles, most of the Nokia phones, OnePlus series and more are not included in the list.
