Get ready, mobile gamers of New Zealand! Epic Games has launched its very own app store on iOS in the EU, bringing Fortnite and other top games to your fingertips. Gaming freedom has arrived!
After what felt like an eternity in game limbo, Epic Games is back in a big way, launching the Epic Games Store on iOS for our friends across the pond in the EU! This move marks a significant stride in offering players an alternative to Apple’s well-known App Store. Equipped with a lineup of popular titles like Fortnite, Fall Guys, and Rocket League Sideswipe, this new storefront is set to take mobile gaming by storm. New Zealanders may only have to wait a tad longer before they too can enjoy this gaming revolution!
The triumphant reintroduction of Fortnite is nothing short of a gaming miracle. Following a long and messy legal tussle with Apple, during which Epic sought to challenge the tech giant's tight grip on app distribution, players in Europe can now once again revel in the chaos of Fortnite via Epic’s newly launched store. Meanwhile, Android users around the globe have also rejoined the fray with the beloved battle royale game. It looks like Epic is bringing the party back to mobile devices, and we couldn't be happier!
Unencumbered by Apple's restrictions, Epic is not only allowing players to download the game but also enabling them to buy in-game currency directly, thus bypassing Apple’s hefty commission. This bold move could potentially set a precedent for others in the gaming world, encouraging a more open and competitive marketplace. It’s like giving a giant cake to a kid only to tell them they can’t have the frosting. Epic is committed to letting players dive right into the gooey goodness without undue restrictions!
However, it’s worth noting that while all this excitement is brewing in Europe, Epic is still technically blocked from launching its app store in the United States due to ongoing legal battles. But fear not, kiwi mates; if the trend continues and Epic expands its horizons, we might just see ourselves joining the fun very soon. In the meantime, let’s toast to Epic’s persistence, as they continue to shake things up in the gaming landscape, bringing freedom of choice to mobile gamers everywhere!
Did you know that Fortnite has over 400 million registered players? That’s like the entire population of the United States playing at once – pretty mind-boggling! Additionally, the Epic Games Store has been offering tons of free games to encourage players to join the platform, proving that gaming isn’t just about profits but sharing the joy of play!
