The case that Epic Games filed against Apple in August 2020 in the United States District Court for the Northern District of California regarding Apple’s practices in the iOS App Store has been making several rounds for some time now. Epic Games specifically took issue with Apple’s restrictions on apps for having in-app purchase methods other than those offered by the App Store. Neither company seems too eager to back down, and the latest court ruling has only worsened matters. With reports of a partnership between Epic Games and Nvidia to bring Fortnite back to iOS users via a web browser, the company seems pleased with its current stance.
