We warned him a few months ago, and even though he prayed more than expected at first, it finally happened: Fortnite has just officially arrived in the Google Play Store, about a year and a half after the game's arrival on its mobile platform based on the Google platform.
There was some doubt about that Google may allow for the publication of Fortnite on Google Play, because the purpose of Epic Games – a game-development company – was worth it prevent Google from receiving 30% of in-app purchases. Something, in theory, could happen since, according to Epic, the Google Play Developer Distribution Agreement does not indicate that developers are required to use Google's payment platform.
Although we'll probably know more details about Fortnite's status on Google Play in the next few hours, the truth is now it is possible to download popular The battlefield from the official app store, in the same way that so far it was possible to do it on the Epic Games website and on the Samsung Galaxy Apps store.
Fortnite comes to Google Play for more than a year and a half after it was introduced on Android
The presentation Fortnite on the Google Play Store was one of the issues where this popular multiplatform game came in, because indirectly, Epic Games put a good portion of Android users on forcing it to download the title from an external source to Google Play so you can play it.
In fact, in the event of this decision, Google should have taken steps in this regard to protect Android users and prevent them from being deceived an outbreak of Fortnite fraudulent copies that came after the launch of the game, both inside and outside of Google Play.
Either way, Fortnite is now available in the Google Play catalog. Of course, the game can do it download free however payment items, and there doesn't seem to be any difference between the game version provided by the Google App Store, and the one responsible for Epic Games on its official website.
Without this rhythm, Epic games seem completely unsatisfactory depending on the hoop and obeying the rules of great G. in relation to ways of earning money. At the very least, that we beg when reading the statement that the developer should share the site Polygon, in which they explain that, after 18 months of offering Fortnite for external channels on Google Play, they concluded that "Google puts readable software out of Google Play unpleasant by technological and commercial means such as cybersecurity and cybersecurity ”, and programs such as Google Play Protect, that attempt to" completely block content acquired outside of Google Play ".
