After years of legal battles and all sorts of shenanigans, Epic Games’ relationship with Apple has come to a mutual standstill – thanks to the EU’s new Digital Markets Act. With the law now in effect, Epic Games have announced that its Epic Games Store is coming to mobile devices later this year.
Announced during GDC and via Twitter, Epic revealed to fans that “We’re coming to iOS and Android! Same fair terms, available to all developers, on a true multi-platform store – with amazing games for everyone.”
The app will arrive at some point before the end of the year; its release coinciding with the official relaunch of Fortnite on iOS.
Epic Games have been fighting to have their own store front in the mobile space for quite some time now. It will be interesting to see how Epic proceeds, and whether it will all have been worth it for them.
