'Fortnite' maker Epic Games launches its app store on iOS in the EU, worldwide on Android | TechCrunch
Briefly

Epic Games has officially launched its rival iOS app store in the European Union, marking a significant development in the mobile gaming landscape. The Epic Games Store is expanding globally by introducing its platform on Android. Amidst ongoing competition and legal struggles with Apple, this launch enables popular games like Fortnite and Rocket League Sideswipe to be offered in a more open ecosystem, aligned with the changes under the EU's Digital Markets Act.
CEO Tim Sweeney stated, 'The tide is turning and the mobile ecosystem is finally opening up to competition.' This sentiment reflects Epic's commitment to providing more choices for developers and consumers, emphasizing that users should have access to their games just as they do on PC and Mac platforms. Sweeney acknowledged the crucial role of the European Commission in facilitating this initiative, indicating that the movement towards a more competitive market is a step forward.
