Just a few weeks after announcing it would work on getting Fortnite support on the Redmi Note 7 Pro, Redmi is rolling out an update to the device that brings support for the popular video game.
Manu Kumar Jain posted a tweet informing owners of the Redmi Note 7 Pro that a new update rolling out to the phone brings Fortnite support. The update arrives as MIUI 10.2.10.0.

The update is less than 300MB in size and users can head to the Fortnite site to download the game when they are done updating. The update has been reported to also fix an issue with the speaker and brings support for 4K video recording.
Redmi Note 7 Pro users actually have Realme to thank for getting support for Fortnite. Before the Realme 3 Pro launched, Realme’s CEO, Madhav Sheth had shared a tweet revealing the device will be able to play the game out of the box. In the same breath, he mocked another device, which we know is the Redmi Note 7 Pro, for not supporting the game. That prompted the head of Xiaomi India to work on getting the Snapdragon 675 whitelisted by Epic Games.
