Fortnite Returns To Apple App Store In The US

Finally, the wait is over! Fortnite has officially returned to the iOS App Store in the United States. And yes, it is real this time. After a five-year legal battle and Apple store bans, Fortnite is back on Apple devices in the US. In fact, the return was not silent; Epic Games has made the return loud, hype-worthy, and clear.

So, before looking at the return, first delve into how it happened and what went wrong.

Epic Saga VS Apple

It all kicked off in 2020 when Epic Games boldly challenged Apple’s App Store policies by stealthily introducing their own in-app payment system. Apple didn’t take too kindly to this audacious move and swiftly kicked Fortnite out of the App Store.

What followed was nothing short of a legal rollercoaster, stretching over several years. While some court rulings sided with Epic, Apple firmly retained the upper hand, keeping the beloved game off its platform. That is, until now.

The Epic Comeback

A recent legal breakthrough has paved the way for Fortnite's triumphant return. After a shove from the courts, Apple has finally welcomed Fortnite back to the US App Store! For millions of mobile gamers, this isn’t just another app update; it is a full-throttle revival.

In fact, the timing could not be more perfect! The current season is bursting with thrilling Star Wars crossovers, featuring fan favorites like Mace Windu, Emperor Palpatine, General Grievous, and even Jar Jar Binks.

And if you have been waiting to crank 90s or squad up from your iPhone, now is the time. Dive right back into the action-packed Galactic Battle.
