What began as a breach of Apple’s terms by Epic Games by integrating payments in Fortnite through its own platform, soon climbed at the judicial level by considering the latter that the rates imposed by the apple company were not fair.

Justice imposed a fine on Epic Games of 12 million dollars to skip the thermals of Epic Games, but it continued to demand the apple company.

Recently, a sentence prohibited Apple to collect commissions for payments that would be made in iOS applications through third -party platforms, a victory for Epic Games that sought to be able to collect all the micropagos that ravage games like Fortnite.

However, Apple did not accept the request to publish Fortnite in its app store and, in a controversial pressure measure, Epic Games also retired Fortnite from his store in Europe, blaming Apple also of that movement.
