Please try this:

public function fileUpload(Request $request) {
    $rules = [];
    $files = count($this->input('files')) - 1;
    foreach(range(0, $files) as $index) {
        $rules['files.' . $index] = 'required|mimes:png,jpeg,jpg,gif|max:2048';
    }

    $validator = Validator::make($request->all() , $rules);

    if ($validator->fails()) {
        return response()->json(array(
            'success' => false,
            'errors' => $validator->getMessageBag()->toArray()
        ) , 400);
    }
