Epic Confirms Fortnite Will Return to iPads, but Only in the EU

Epic Games has announced that Fortnite will return to iPads but exclusively in the European Union (EU). This decision follows the European Commission's directive for iPadOS to adhere to the Digital Markets Act, similar to iOS. The reintroduction of Fortnite on iPads is part of Epic's broader strategy to establish the Epic Games Store on both Android and iOS in the EU, aiming to offer competitive payment terms and exclusive games like Fortnite. The game was previously removed from mobile platforms due to policy violations related to Epic's direct payment system.
