Epic Games Accuses Apple of Stalling EU Launch of 'Fortnite' and Game Store, Informs European Commission
Jul 5, 2024, 11:40 AM
Epic Games is facing challenges in launching its game store, including 'Fortnite', on iPhones and iPads in Europe. The company has accused Apple of stalling the launch by rejecting its Epic Games Store notarization submission twice. Apple cited issues with the design and position of Epic’s 'Install' button, which it claims is too similar to Apple's 'Get' button, and the 'In-app purchases' label, which is also similar to Apple's 'In-App Purchases' label. Epic Games has shared its concerns with the European Commission, marking the latest escalation in the ongoing feud between the two companies over control of the iOS app ecosystem. The initial announcement was made on June 30, with further developments reported on July 1, July 3, and July 5.
