Fortnite back on US Apple app store after five years
Briefly

Fortnite, the popular video game developed by Epic Games, has made its return to Apple's app store in the US almost five years after being removed in August 2020. The removal was due to Epic's launch of an in-app payment system that circumvented Apple's standard 30% commission on purchases, leading to a significant legal confrontation between the two companies over perceived monopolistic practices. Fortnite was recently made available in both the US and European Union app stores, a move that raises questions about app store regulations and competition in the gaming industry, particularly following recent legislative changes in Europe.
Epic Games' long legal battle over Fortnite's removal from Apple's app store highlights ongoing debates about app store policies and competition in the gaming industry.
