\tEpic Games continued to battle Apple over its App Store policies, appealing a court ruling which handed it a partial victory against the iPhone maker but which failed to address the gaming company’s key concerns over monopolistic practices.<\/p>\n

The games company appealed the ruling on 12 September. CEO Tim Sweeney explained on Twitter the district court judgement was not a win for developers or consumers and was downbeat on the prospects of a swift return to iOS for big-name title Fortnite [1].<\/p>\n

Epic Games is \u201cfighting for fair competition among in-app payment methods and app stores for a billion consumers\u201d, Sweeney wrote, adding Fortnite would only be restored once the company “can offer in-app payment in fair competition” with Apple’s system.<\/p>\n

Although the district court backed Epic Games’ claims Apple’s in-app purchasing set-up demonstrated anti-competitive behaviour and ordered changes [2], the games company reportedly lost several other key elements in its case against the iPhone maker, which are the subject of its appeal.<\/p>\n

Among these was a claim Apple engaged in monopolistic behaviour, stifling competition by restricting the payment options open to developers.<\/p>\n

The court also ordered Epic Games to pay damages of 30 per cent on revenue of $12 million earned through a direct payment option [3] it introduced between August and October 2020, and 30 per cent of such revenue collected until the ruling.<\/p>\n
