On Friday, Epic Games launched its Epic Games Store. It can now be downloaded on iPhones in the EU and on Android devices worldwide. This follows an announcement made earlier in March.
Epic Games Store Launch
The store offers three games:
- Fortnite
- Rocket League Sideswipe
- A new mobile Fall Guys
Epic Games aims to allow other developers to launch their games and apps on the Epic Games Store soon.
Fortnite Returns to iOS
Fortnite has returned to iOS after a four-year absence due to legal issues. Now, players can enjoy Fortnite Battle Royale Chapter 5, Season 4: Absolute Doom on mobile and other platforms.
Installation on iOS and Android
Installing the Epic Games Store on iOS and Android can be tricky. It involves:
- Multiple steps
- Confusing settings
- Warnings from Apple and Google
Epic Games is suing to challenge these restrictions. They are also working with global regulators to remove what they see as anticompetitive terms.
Partnerships with Third-Party App Stores
Epic Games is partnering with third-party app stores. This will make their games more accessible. They are launching on AltStore PAL for iOS users in the EU and plan to expand to:
- Aptoide’s iOS store
- ONE Store on Android
AltStore PAL
Epic Games has introduced AltStore PAL, a third-party app store for EU users, which is free to use. A “MegaGrant” from Epic Games makes this possible. It covers Apple’s Core Technology fee, so users don’t need a subscription.
