As a long-time gamer who has been following the saga between Epic Games and Apple with bated breath, the news of Epic’s app store launch in the EU feels like a victory for fair competition. After years of waiting, Fortnite is back on iOS devices in Europe, marking the end of its ban due to App Store policies.
Epic Games has finally debuted its own app marketplace across the European Union after years of preparation. This move brings “Fortnite” back to iOS devices in Europe for the first time since 2020, when it was prohibited due to violating App Store policies, particularly Apple’s 30% cut from in-app transactions.
As a gamer, I’m thrilled about the recent turn of events in the Apple-Epic legal saga. Thanks to Europe’s Digital Markets Act, Apple has been compelled to open up their platform, allowing third-party app stores like the Epic Games Store to thrive on mobile devices. And guess what? The Epic Games Store is now accessible on Android devices too!
Additionally, you can find games such as Fall Guys and Rocket League Sideswipe in this store, just like Fortnite. However, the procedure for downloading the store may seem a bit complex. To help clarify, Epic Games has provided a detailed video tutorial to guide you through the “slightly lengthy” process of downloading their platform.
1. Epic Games claims that Apple and Google intentionally designed suboptimal app installation processes, filled with numerous steps, complex device settings, and alarming screens, which they believe is causing slow download times. Epic is persisting in legal battles to remove the allegedly anti-competitive terms imposed by Apple and Google on both developers and consumers.
Despite Fortnite’s ongoing ban in the U.S., Epic is hailed as victorious with its app store launch, as it employs its own payment processor. This move has been eagerly anticipated by the company. Furthermore, they highlighted that the store operates just like any other app, and will automatically update without user intervention.
