Epic Games Launches App Store on iOS and Android, Featuring Top Games

Epic Games Ventures into New Territory with Its Own App Store

Epic Games has made a bold move by launching its own app store on iOS and Android, featuring popular games like Fortnite, Fall Guys, and Rocket League Sideswipe. However, there seems to be a catch, especially for iOS users.

In a recent announcement blog, Epic Games pointed out that the process of installing the Epic Games Store on iOS and Android is quite cumbersome. This is due to Apple and Google intentionally creating poor-quality install experiences with multiple steps, confusing device settings, and scare screens.

Epic has taken the initiative to release instructional videos for iOS and Android users, guiding them on how to install the Epic Games Store based on their device. The company has also expressed its commitment to enabling all developers to launch their games and apps through the Epic Games Store in the future.

While Fortnite, Fall Guys, and Rocket League Sideswipe are now available on the indie alternative app store AltStore PAL, this option is limited to players in the EU on iOS.

Tim Sweeney, the CEO of Epic Games, stated, “The tide is turning, and the mobile ecosystem is finally opening up to competition.” He expressed gratitude to the European Commission for facilitating the launch of the Epic Games Store and making their games accessible to iOS users in the European Union.

Sweeney added, “Now European iOS users and all Android users can access our store and games, similar to open platforms like PC and Mac. While the battle is ongoing, this marks a significant step forward for developers and consumers who can now enjoy the benefits of competition and choice.”
