Fortnite Returns to US App Store
Digest more
Apple initially removed Fortnite from the App Store in 2020 after Epic Games tried to skirt commissions on in-app purchases.
On top of all the problems, Fortnite is not available to all iOS users who use the search function in the App Store. For some reason, the game can be downloaded through the direct link, yet it doesn’t appear after users search for it. However, this is likely a temporary issue that will soon be fixed by Apple.
The comeback appeared in jeopardy after Apple initially refused to approve Fortnite’s bid before Apple relented this week, clearing the app for U.S. users. It’s also back in the European Union, where alternative app marketplaces have been mandated since last year.
