Epic Games plans to bring the Epic Games Store to iOS and Android before the end of 2024.
We may see a significant change in the mobile gaming market in the coming months. Here are all the details…
Epic Games Store is coming to iOS and Android by the end of 2024
The App Store and Google Play Store usually have a limited selection of games, and these games are often overpriced. The mobile version of the Epic Games Store will give mobile gamers a wider choice of games and make them more affordable.
Over 1,000 games are currently available on the Epic Games Store, including popular titles like Fortnite, Hades, Disco Elysium, The Witness, and Control. Many of these games are expected to be included in the store’s mobile version.
One key advantage of the Epic Games Store is its generous revenue share policy. Offering developers an 88% revenue share significantly outperforms Apple and Google’s 30% commission rate. As a result, games on the Epic Games Store are likely to be more competitively priced than those on the App Store and Google Play Store.
The Epic Games Store’s entry into the mobile sphere signifies a major milestone for developers. It presents an opportunity for developers to distribute their games across multiple platforms, thereby increasing their potential for revenue generation.
A mobile game developer can reach iOS and Android users simultaneously by publishing their game on the Epic Games Store. This will allow the developer to reach more players and generate more revenue.
The tension between Apple and Epic Games continues. However, we shared with you today that Meta, Microsoft, and X criticized Apple’s App Store commissions, so we’ll see how real this plan is.
The arrival of the Epic Games Store on mobile devices could significantly change the mobile gaming market. It could offer mobile gamers more game options and affordable prices, creating new opportunities for mobile game developers.
