Epic Games Store Launches on Mobile, Challenging App Store Dominance
Translate
In a groundbreaking move that could reshape the mobile gaming landscape, Epic Games has officially launched its Epic Games Store on both iOS and Android devices. The launch marks a significant step in the company's ongoing battle against Apple and Google's app store monopolies.
The Epic Games Store brings a fresh approach to mobile gaming, offering players a curated selection of high-quality titles without the hefty fees imposed by traditional app stores. The store's launch coincides with the return of popular games like Fortnite, Rocket League Sideswipe, and the newly released Fall Guys to mobile devices.
Epic Games CEO, Tim Sweeney, expressed his enthusiasm for the launch, stating, "We're excited to bring the Epic Games Store experience to mobile players. This is a major step forward in our fight for fair competition and consumer choice."
While the initial lineup of games is limited, Epic has pledged to expand its offerings in the coming months, with a focus on ing independent developers and offering exclusive deals.
The launch of the Epic Games Store on mobile is expected to intensify the ongoing legal battles between Epic Games and Apple and Google. The company has been vocal about its opposition to the 30% commission charged by these tech giants for in-app purchases.
As the mobile gaming industry continues to evolve, the Epic Games Store's success will be closely watched by gamers, developers, and industry analysts alike.

We've resolved an exploit where players were sometimes dashing erratically when using the War Machine's Hover Jets. Players should still be able to "bunny hop" and perform other advanced movement tactics after this fix.
