Months and months later, Fortnite is still the game that is taking the world by storm. In its latest update, the Android version of Fortnite has added support for the Snapdragon 710 and Snapdragon 670 processors.

Noted in the patch notes for Fortnite v7.10, support has been added in the game for two new Qualcomm processors. The Snapdragon 670 and Snapdragon 710 aren’t widely used (yet), but they do appear in a handful of recent releases.

For the Snapdragon 710, that includes the likes of the new Nokia 8.1, Xiaomi Mi 8 SE, OPPO R17 Pro, and others. The Snapdragon 670 can be found in the OPPO R17 and a couple of others, but it’s most notably the processor likely coming in Google’s rumored “Pixel 3 Lite.”

Aside from the extra processor support, Fortnite for Android’s latest update also delivers some additional improvements to the game’s UI as noted below.

UI buttons updated.

Made the HUD settings tab visible for mobile players.

Updated icons to be more visible in snow.

Moved the Exit Vehicle button to a new location
