Epic iOS Store

[heyadol]

There are reports that Epic had their Apple Developer account reinstated and they are going to open an iOS storefront in the EU. I'm sure the focus will be on Fortnite, but I really hope Epic's older iOS games come back. Even if they are not available for purchase again, with Epic back on the store we should be able to download/restore previous purchases.

If there are any iOS/iPadOS users here in the EU, does Infinity Blade show up in the App Store? I had all three entries, they were pretty fun and had really impressive graphics for a mobile game at the time. Not a perfect comparison, but it is basically Fruit Ninja with swords, there is an old post about it from this forum:

From what I've seen, although of course Fortnite will be the biggest title in the Epic Games IOS Store, it will pretty much be like Epic Games Store on PC, so there will be apps from different developers too

Well, if you have to be a citizen of or living in a European country, then that is not a good thing for anyone else.

I’d also bought all three and have completely forgotten about them. Now that I’ve got a much better iPad and iPhone I’d love to try them again.

That comment felt a bit out of context and disrespectful because European are a race, generally people use the term "White" instead.

So what you meant is "If you have to be in the EU to use it, that's not good."

That said, Apple will probably expand those alt app stores as they control and monetize them. Sideloading? Yeah, right. lmao

I meant that you would have to be a citizen of or living in a European country, so not even Americans would be able to access this and would just be stuck with Apple's own store. Sorry if I messed up.
