In addition, it is indicated that “in force immediately Apple will no longer hinder the ability of developers to communicate with users and will not allow or impose a new commission on purchases out of application”.
After that, the CEO of Epic Games, Tim Sweeney, went to Twitter, announcing: “We will return Fortnite to the IOS IOS App Store next week.
“Epic offers a peace proposal: if Apple extends the frameless frame of the court in the world, we will return Fortnite in the App Store worldwide and abandon current and future disputes on the subject.”
