News Fortnite for iOS is unavailable worldwide

[News]

Fortnite is no longer available from the iOS Epic Games Store in the EU.

Fortnite maker Epic Games has announced that Apple has blocked the game’s return to iOS. Following the rejection, Fortnite is no longer available on iPhones and iPads even in the European Union, where it had previously been available to download through the Epic Games Store.

“Apple has blocked our Fortnite submission so we cannot release to the US App Store or to the Epic Games Store for iOS in the European Union,” the company posted on the official Fortnite X account. “Now, sadly, Fortnite on iOS will be offline worldwide until Apple unblocks it.”

Epic had resubmitted Fortnite to the US App Store following a recent ruling in Epic’s lawsuit against Apple that prohibited Apple from restricting developers’ ability to link to external payment systems, one of the issues that had started their long-running legal battle.
