Fortnite unavailable on iPhones globally after Apple rejects App Store release

Epic Games has faced a legal battle with Apple over Fortnite's removal from the iPhone App Store, with Apple blocking Epic's submission as part of its antitrust investigation into the feud. Despite Apple imposing a 27% commission on in-app transactions outside its system and allowing alternative payment options in limited cases, the company recently ruled against Epic's claims, clearing the way for Fortnite to return in some regions under the Epic Games Store app. The game remains unavailable globally due to ongoing legal disputes between the companies.
