OnePlus has partnered with Epic Games to bring a 90 fps (frames per second) gameplay mode for Fortnite on its OnePlus 8 series smartphones. This is the fastest frame rate ever available for Fortnite on a smartphone. No other mobile game offers frame rates higher than 60fps as of now. Even console games have a cap of 60 fps.
Apart from bringing a 90 fps mode, the partnership also allows OnePlus 6 or older OnePlus smartphone users to be able to download and install Fortnite via the Epic Games inside of the ‘Game Space’ application.

The company has not commented on when the new 90 fps mode for Fortnite will be made available for the above-mentioned smartphones.
