Fortnite's Return to UK iPhones

Currently, UK iPhone users cannot download Fortnite, however, they can play on a browser. The Guardian reports Epic Games wants to bring the Fortnite app back to UK iPhones in late 2025. “Unless Apple and Google manage to lobby the UK government that they should be able to continue blocking competition, we should be able to move on that by the end of next year,” Tim Sweeney told them.

New competition law was passed in May, which could pave the way for alternative app stores on iPhones. “The fight is far from over, but this is tangible progress for developers and consumers who can begin to benefit from competition and choice,” Mr. Sweeney said in a press release.

Epic Games has also made its games Rocket League Sideswipe and Fall Guys available on its new app store.
