Earlier this year, Epic Games sued Apple after they removed Fortnite from their App Store. Case after case, we came to the situation that Apple removed Epic Games from their app store.

In a statement, Apple said: “We are disappointed that we have had to terminate the Epic Games account on the App Store.” And they continued: “We have worked with the team at Epic Games for many years on their launches and releases. The court recommended that Epic comply with the App Store guidelines while their case moves forward, guidelines they’ve followed for the past decade until they created this situation. Epic has refused.”

What Does This Mean?

So, after Apple removed Epic from the store, this means Epic can no longer make applications for Apple products like the iPhone and iPad. There is no comment or statement made by Epic Games yet. Epic previously blamed Apple for operating a monopoly over its system. And Apple said that Epic benefited a lot for being in the Apple store and became a rich company.
