Fortnite Still Missing from US App Store as Epic and Apple Clash Again

🎮 The Battle Continues:
The long-running feud between Epic Games and Apple is back in the spotlight. A recent court ruling banned Apple from taking commission on external purchases—one of the key issues that led to Fortnite’s 2020 removal.

📱 Still No Fortnite (in the US):
Despite the legal win, Apple blocked Epic’s latest App Store submission, keeping Fortnite off the U.S. App Store. The game remains unavailable worldwide on iOS, despite being reinstated in the EU last year.

😤 Tim Sweeney Responds… with Sarcasm:
Epic CEO Tim Sweeney took to Twitter, ironically recommending fake Fortnite knock-offs on the App Store, like Epic Survival Battle Royale 3D Clash Squad Battle Royale 3D—a dig at Apple’s inconsistency in allowing clear copycats.

🧑‍⚖️ Courts vs. Corporates:
A US court recently criticized Apple for an “obvious cover-up,” signaling that pressure is mounting on the tech giant—but for now, Fortnite fans on iOS are still stuck in limbo.

🧨 TL;DR: Epic won a big battle, but Apple still controls the gate. Fortnite is blocked in the U.S., while bootleg clones roam free. Tim Sweeney’s not taking it quietly
