Fortnite for Android has been added to the Play Store

Fortnite is now available for Android on the Google Play Store. The game was pre-existing out Google Play Store as a direct download from the Epic Games developer website & # 39;

In 2019, Epic he told The Verge has asked Google to remove the expectation that apps "use Google's payment service for in-app purchases." It said the 30% of Google's claim was "illegal in the case of a distribution platform in more than 50 markets." Google disagrees.

Epic said in a statement to Polgongon Tuesday that it had changed its contract because of the "inaccuracy [s]" Google placed on apps outside the Google Play store.

Here is the company's complete statement:

After 18 months of operation Fortnite on Android without the Google Play Store, we have reached a basic understanding:

Google puts software downloads out of Google Play uncomfortably, using technological and terrifying methods such as awesome, repetitive software downloads and updates, limited builder and carrier agreements and collaborations, Google's public relations system that exposes third-party software resources such as malware, and new initiatives such as and Google Play Protect software block directly available from outside the Google Play store.

Because of this, we introduce Fortnite for Android in the Google Play Store. We will continue to use the Epic Games App again Fortnite except Google Play, too.

We hope that Google will review its policies and business practices soon, so that all developers are free to access and engage with customers and customers on Android and the Play Store through open services, including payment services, that can compete in the gaming field.
