Epic Games claims that Apple is blocking Fortnite’s app from the US and EU App Stores. After a legal victory allowing external payments in the US App Store, Epic Games tried to resubmit Fortnite on May 9, 2025. However, Apple didn’t accept the submission for a week, leading Epic Games to pull it. They then submitted a new version on May 14, but Apple blocked it. Apple disputes Epic Games’ claims, stating they asked for the app update without the US storefront to avoid impacting other regions.
