We have a few weeks where nobody knows what happens, since it seems that for each other, Fortnite is not able to return to the App Storealthough he had authorization to do so. Now it seems that Apple does not want it to be, and it blocks its publication again.
Today we will make a summary of everything we know so far, in order to foresee whether the game will be available, in the future, in the Apple store, or Fortnite fonders will remain unable to install it on their iPhones or iPads.
When Fortnite will come out on iPhone
Apple has blocked Fortnite's return again to app store, preventing players from IOS devices worldwide, including the United States and the European Union can download it. Epic Games tried to reintroduce the game using a Swedish developer account, because its main US account is still suspended since 2020 for violating the App Store standards by implementing an alternative payment system.
Despite a Recent judicial ruling that forces Apple to allow links to external payment methodsthe company blocked Epic's request to publish Fortnite again. This leads us to a complicated situation, since apparently, Fortnite could be in the store, however, Apple knows that it would lead them to a future problem, so they are trying to delay it, knowing that it is not entirely legal what they do.
Currently, the only form of Play Fortnite on iOS devices It is through cloud game services such as GeForce Now or Xcloud, which present technical limitations, and that, therefore, are not a real option for it, as would be the app itself.
There are already 5 years of disputes, and although Epic Games has it won, Apple commands, and without an order that forces them to accept the app, they will try to delay everything they can, so if you are waiting for this game on your iPhone, I have to tell you that it will not be soon, and except surprise, we will take it to see it, since everything points to a new trial between both companies, looking for a solution that content.
In summary, little must be speculated, since it does not depend on us, and if they do not agree between both companies, we can do little. For now it is time to wait, and hopefully they solve the problem soon, since Fortnite's exit for iOS is one of the most anticipated news by many gamers, and the fact that the game is created, and cannot be published, it is quite frustrating, the truth.
And you, have you been able to try the game on any of the occasions where it was in the App Store? Have you downloaded it externally to the official store? Leave us a comment with your experiences and opinion about all this. The truth is that it is not the same to play on computer as on mobile, but for trips, it is wonderful to have your favorite game in it.
