Epic’s Fortnite game back on iPhones in the EU and Android worldwide

NEW DELHI: Epic Games announced on Friday that it has now arrived on mobile, bringing its popular games like Fortnite, Fall Guys and Rocket League Sideswipe to Android devices worldwide and iOS in the European Union thanks to the Digital Markets Act (DMA).

After a four-year hiatus, Fortnite is now available on iPhones in the European Union and on Google’s Android devices worldwide. In August 2020, Apple and Google removed Fortnite from their app stores for violating their policies.

The Epic Games Store is now available on mobile, bringing Fortnite, Fall Guys and Rocket League Sideswipe straight to your mobile devices – on Android devices worldwide and on iOS in the European Union thanks to the Digital Markets Act (DMA).

“For the first time ever, Fall Guys is available on mobile and can be downloaded for free from the Epic Games Store,” the company said.

The new DMA allowed Epic to launch its own Epic Games Store on iOS and bring its popular Fortnite back to the platform in Europe with reduced commissions for Apple.

“This is just the beginning. Our goal is to make the Epic Games Store the leading cross-platform games store, open to all app and game developers,” it continued.

Epic has been at odds with Apple for years over the company’s revenue-sharing requirements in the App Store.

Epic Games said it has “an ambitious plan” that will bring new features and incredible games to the Epic Games Store at a later date, “all of which will benefit from our 88 percent/12 percent revenue share and established Epic Games Store programs.”

The gaming company is now offering its users exciting new rewards.

“Players can unlock these in-game rewards after downloading our games from the Epic Games Store on mobile and AltStore PAL on iOS in the European Union,” Epic helps.

“We are working to bring our games to stores that offer great terms to all developers, and these rewards will also be available when our games are downloaded from other mobile stores by November 2nd. We also plan to bring our games to Aptoide’s iOS store in the EU and the ONE Store on Android,” it said.
