Fortnite has been removed from the google play store And apple app store:
Epic Games has struggled Google's 30% scrape of in-app purchases on Android to an extent now, to the question where Fortnite was just available on Samsung's Galaxy Store and as an APK download. The corporation finally covered down early this year, when the game finally occurred on the Google Play Store, but directly it has been quietly pulled attending an update that escaped Google's payment policy. Epic Games published a server-side update for Fortnite prematurely today, which developed the alternative of saving 20% when buying V-Bucks by trying Epic's own payment portal. Google's guidelines state that "products within a game downloaded on Google Play or giving access to game content" must utilize the Google Play In-app Billing, which provides the company a 30% scrape from all revenue.
Apple soon removed Fortnite from the App Store over the topic. Epic Games encouraged a probability in it's an application, which was nothing surveyed or authorized with Apple, and they did so with the specific purpose of violating the App Store guidelines respecting in-app payments that correlate to every developer who sells digital goods or services, the corporation notified The Verge in an announcement.
It was clear Epic Games was prepared for the takedown, as it uploaded a video mocking Apple's 1984-themed advertisement for the original Macintosh immediately after the removal. Epic has also documented a lawsuit against Apple, naming the corporation "The Behemoth Seeking To Control Markets, Block Competition, and Stifle Innovation."
Google Has Currently Also Removed Fortnite From Its App Store:
The open Android ecosystem allows developers to distribute apps through many app stores. For game developers who authorize to use the Google Play Store, we have compatible agreements that are fair to developers and protect the store stable for users. While Fortnite continues accessible on Android, we can no longer make it accessible on Play because it violates our agreements. Though, we welcome the opportunity to proceed with our discussions with Epic and bring Fortnite back to Google Play Store.
Epic Games has currently confirmed a lawsuit against Google, almost similar to the one documented against Apple. It claims that Google is "utilizing its size to do Evil Upon Competitors, Innovators, Customers, and addicts in a slew of markets it has accumulated to monopolize." Actually, though Fortnite is still available on Android through different stores, the lawsuit explains instantly downloading Fortnite "can involve a dozen steps, expecting the user to change default settings and fearlessly click through many terrible warnings."
