«Fortnite» Epic Games утверждает, что Apple не только не подходит для приложения, но оно, но оно, оно, оно, оно, оно, оно, оно, оно, оно, оно, оно, оно, оно, оно, оно, оно, оно, оно, оно, оно, оно, оно, оно, оно, оно, оно, оно, оно, оно, оно, оно, оно, которое он, оно, оно, оно, оно It was in the “side”.
After Apple Games announced that after the first presentation of Fortnite in the App Store was ignored that the game has already been blocked. It would seem that he will not return to an American application store, and, as reported, Apple removed it from the European one, despite the fact that it was previously forced to resolve this.
Apple has blocked our Fortnite performance, so we cannot release appendices or to the Epic Games store for iOS in the European Union. Now, unfortunately, Fortnite on iOS will be offline around the world until Apple unlocks it.

The General Director of Epic Games Tim Swini did not give further explanation, and Apple did not comment on publicly.
However, the entire legal battle between the two companies began when the EPIC Games deliberately violated the Apple App Store in 2020. Apple then pulled out the developer’s game account and wanted to delete all various accounts of the App Store.
Apple reported that she had to allow the company's account account, since its deletion will have a harmful effect on countless users. Then, in 2024, the EU forced new applications for Apple, and as a result, epic games and Fortnite returned to the European Union.
subsequently both companies went to court, and Apple won all the case & mdash; But for a single issue. This problem concerned anti -competitive practices, and Apple could not fully comply with the requirements of the court.
As a result of the fact that Judge Ivonn Gonzalez called “non -fulfillment” of Apple, the companies gave obvious instructions on how it should correspond. Apple was forced to follow these rules, even when she was an appeal against a decision.
The Judge's Rules relate to Apple, which should stop the collection of certain fees, and most specifically so that the developers miss their purchase fees in the application. Now the developers should be allowed to direct users to their alternative, third -party payment processes.
Epic Games suggest & mdash; Or he wanted him to be assumed that Mdash; This meant that this could return to an American application store. A direct connection with his own payments is what he strove for, and was at the center of his initial violation of Apple's rules.
On May 6, 2025, Epic Games announced that Fortnite will return to an American application store within a week. This followed Twit on May 3, when he claimed that he was negotiating with Apple.
We talked with Apple on the topic and will use our Epic Games Sweden account to send Fortnite to an American application store. We created this account last year to launch the Epic Games and Fortnite store in the European Union, and Apple required an EU account.
& mdash; Tim Suini (@timsweeenepic) on May 3, 2025. “I can’t imagine that the apple blocks Fortnite at the moment.”
“We told Apple what we were doing. We told their team in relations with the developers,” he continued.
Then, May 9, 2025, Epic Games presented “Fortnite” in the App Store and his Application review team. By May 14, Apple did not approve the game, and & mdash; Claiming that he had an update release, ready to send & mdash; Epic games pulled out their performance.
at some point after that the game company presented its recently updated version of Fortnite in the App Store. Then he was allegedly ignored by Apple, and now, according to Suini, the existing application to the EU was deleted.
, disappointing the users “Fortnite”, it is not clear how Epic Games expect to return it. The company equated & mdash; Or I wanted to seem to seem to be equated with & mdash; Apple is forced to accept third -party payment systems, and Apple is forced to accept Fortnite.
instead still remains that epic games deliberately violate the agreements on the application store. It is also unclear why Apple allowed him back to the EU store and now, as reported, she blocked the application even there.
it is also unclear why EPIC does not publish the heading on the MAC, since it does not need to resolve Apple for independence on this platform.
