Epic Games has announced that it will launch the Epic Games Store on Android and iOS later this year, marking a significant expansion for the popular digital distribution platform. This move will allow mobile gamers to access a wide range of games and exclusive titles on their smartphones and tablets, further solidifying Epic's presence in the gaming market.

Gamers can grab an open-world fishing game and a visual novel based on the Amazon Prime series Invincible for free from the Epic Games Store, showcasing the platform's commitment to offering a diverse selection of games to its users. With regular free game offerings and exclusive deals, Epic continues to attract players from all around the world.

There are more developments today in the ongoing battle between Apple and some of its biggest App Store opponents. First, in a new amicus brief, Epic Games has reiterated its stance on the need for fair competition and consumer choice in the digital marketplace. The company's ongoing legal battles with Apple have shed light on the challenges faced by developers and users in the current app ecosystem.

No competing App Store for you. Epic is referring there to the Digital Markets Act, the European regulation that has forced Apple to officially open up its platform to third-party app stores and payment systems. This move could have far-reaching implications for the mobile app industry and could lead to increased competition and innovation in the market.

Epic teased that it plans on launching the Epic Games Store on both iOS and Android. It's unclear when the store will arrive on mobile, but the company's commitment to expanding its reach to new platforms is evident. With the success of the Epic Games Store on PC, the move to mobile is a natural progression for Epic.

Epic Games in February said that it would launch an Epic Games Store on the iPhone in the European Union, and today the company held an event to showcase its upcoming offerings for mobile gamers. With a focus on user experience and developer support, Epic aims to provide a seamless and enjoyable gaming experience on iOS and Android devices.

With plans to launch its own game store on iOS, it's now been announced that the Epic Games Store is coming to Android as well. This move will allow Android users to access exclusive games and content, further expanding Epic's reach in the mobile gaming market. The company's dedication to providing a diverse range of games and services is evident in this new development.

It will offer the same 12%/88% Epic/developer revenue split as on Windows. Epic has confirmed that its Games Store is coming to both iOS and Android with the same revenue sharing model that has made it popular among developers. This fair and transparent approach to revenue sharing has been praised by many in the industry and will likely attract more developers to the platform.

As reported by PCGamesN, the Epic Games Store's Free Games page has been updated to advertise Super Meat Boy Forever as the freebie for February, showcasing the platform's commitment to offering high-quality games to its users. With regular free game offerings and exclusive deals, Epic continues to be a popular choice for gamers looking for new and exciting titles to play.
