Until its removal, Fortnite was one of the most popular games on iOS. But Epic and Apple had different ideas about the payment captures. As a result, the game got removed from App Store, and the updates stopped for those playing on iOS. The lack of Fortnite is a financial loss for both companies. But Epic wants to redirect players to its own payment system, aiming not to pay Apple a commission, and the problem isn’t solved even after 2 years. As the game doesn’t get any updates, the ones who downloaded it and never deleted it are playing a very outdated version. And with the changes Apple made today, Fortnite is even more unplayable on iOS now.
Fortnite Is Now More Unplayable Than Ever On iOS
Starting with the end of the month, the players won’t be able to spend their V-bucks, and they must be at least 18 years old to continue playing. This was announced in Epic’s status account, so you might not be heard about it. Especially that block to the in-game purchases is an ill problem. The latest version, 13.40, already has a poor experience and is devoid of the fun events we played in the past two years.
Epic Games is still working to bring the game back to App Store, and they’re optimists. According to the freshest information, Epic aims to achieve this in 2023. Fortnite had a big fanbase on iOS, and it’s even a downside for iPhone and iPad game experience. We hope that Epic and Apple go for reconciliation and meet the gamers of Fortnite again. Because even if you installed the game years ago, the current iOS version doesn’t offer a good experience at all. It’s empty and unpleasant. Don’t forget to spend your V-Bucks in the store until they get useless.
