Mobile gamers in the US are celebrating! Fortnite, which has finally made its long-awaited return to iPhone and iPad, has skyrocketed to the top of the App Store charts. After a five-year hiatus caused by a fierce legal battle between Epic Games and Apple, the popular battle royale is back in the hands of millions of users.
After a five-year absence following a high-profile legal battle, Fortnite has made a triumphant return to the Apple App Store for iPhone and iPad users in the US. Developer Epic Games shared this long-awaited news and celebrated with a Twitter post, letting fans know that they can once again immerse themselves in the mega-popular battle royale.
The Epic vs Apple saga continues to gain momentum, and this time, a US court is taking the stage. The US District Court Judge Yvonne Gonzalez Rogers demands Apple to explain why Fortnite is still blocked on iOS devices, despite previous court decisions allowing its return to the App Store.
The US actors' union SAG-AFTRA has harshly criticised Epic Games for introducing a chatbot with the voice of Darth Vader in Fortnite, accusing the company of "unfair labour practices". The decision, which allows players to interact with a character that matches the iconic voice of the late actor James Earl Jones, has caused a real storm of outrage.
Fortnite players who were looking forward to the return of their favourite game to iOS are once again disappointed. After several days of waiting, it has been officially announced that Epic Games' efforts to bring Fortnite back to iOS have failed: Apple has blocked the game from appearing in both the US App Store and the Epic Games Store for iOS in the European Union.
After almost five years of absence, Fortnite has not yet appeared in the iOS App Store, although Epic Games officially submitted the game for consideration on 9 May. Epic Games CEO Tim Sweeney said that Apple is delaying the approval process, which jeopardises plans to update the game simultaneously on all platforms.
After years of absence, Fortnite is preparing to return to the US iOS App Store, and Epic Games is increasing the motivation of users to purchase content directly through their payment system by increasing Epic Rewards to 20%. This is a strategic move amid the ongoing struggle with Apple for alternative payment methods.
But the engine won't be out in the next 2-3 years
Epic Games has announced a dramatic change to the Epic Games Store operating model that will take effect in June 2025. From now on, all payments processed through the store will not be subject to any commission until the first million dollars in revenue is reached. Only after this mark will the profit distribution in the ratio of 88% in favour of the developer and 12% for Epic Games come into effect.
The long-running legal battle between Epic Games and Apple may finally be coming to an end, and Fortnite fans on iOS have received a ray of hope. The US judge Yvonne Gonzalez Rogers ordered Apple to lift its restrictions on alternative payment methods, which instantly prompted Epic Games to offer to end the legal battle and bring the popular battle royale back to Apple devices.
