Epic Games Store will be available on iOS and Android by the end of the year: Epic Games officially announced it during the State of Unreal 2024, confirming that the mobile version of the platform will offer the same advantages as the current one.
Last January the company revealed that Fortnite will return to iOS in Europe in 2024 thanks to the Epic Games Store, and after the latest vicissitudes (first Apple closed Epic's account, then had to restore it) the plans have been confirmed.
Of course on the State of Unreal stage there was discussion about gatekeeping and “just fight” in describing the battle that Epic and Apple have been fighting for a few years nowand which at least in Europe has experienced an important turning point.
The same benefits as the original Epic Games Store
As mentioned, the mobile version of the Epic Games Store will offer developers the same advantages as the original platformtherefore a margin for the publisher equal to 12%, no share on in-game purchases, zero European royalties and so on.
It will be very interesting to find out how this scenario will evolve and whether the Cupertino company will resort to further measures to prevent platforms other than the App Store from being accessible by users on iOS.
