Replying to a tweet from the official account of the App Store, Sweeney hyped an update for\u00a0<strong><em>PUBG Mobile<\/em><\/strong>, which uses Unreal Engine 4,\u00a0in a move clearly intended as a jab at Apple over the <a href=\"https:\/\/gamerant.com\/court-deals-major-blow-epic-games-fight-apple\/\">ongoing legal battle between it and Epic Games<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>While this move does help Epic Games promote the Unreal Engine, it is intriguing that Sweeney is promoting what is perhaps\u00a0<em>Fornite<\/em>&#8216;s most direct competition on mobile platforms. This is especially the case when considering that the Unreal Engine\u00a0can be used for many genres of games ranging from first-person shooters to sports games. Promoting another battle royale\u00a0in the form of\u00a0<em><a href=\"https:\/\/gamerant.com\/tag\/pubg\/\">PUBG Mobile<\/a>\u00a0<\/em>is an interesting move where Sweeney can demonstrate the value of the Unreal Engine and how its use is widespread across the industry.<\/p>\n<p><span class=\"related-single\"><strong>RELATED:\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/gamerant.com\/pubg-mobile-avoids-ban-india\/\">PUBG Mobile Avoids Getting Banned in India<\/a><\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p>When the <a href=\"https:\/\/gamerant.com\/epic-games-lawsuit-apple-google-explained\/\">lawsuit bought by Epic Games against Apple<\/a> first occurred (as a result of\u00a0Apple removing <em>Fortnite <\/em>from the App Store due to the game attempting to circumvent\u00a0its system of in-game payments), there were concerns that there would be innocent casualties. After all,\u00a0<em>PUBG\u00a0<\/em>and other games use the Unreal Engine developed by Epic.<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" width=\"320\" height=\"320\" frameborder=\"0\" src=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/TimSweeneyEpic\/status\/1299411766682816515\" frameborder=\"0\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>Thankfully, this will\u00a0not be the case as <a href=\"https:\/\/www.thegamer.com\/unreal-engine-ios-saved-fortnite-blocked\/\"  rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Epic was granted a restraining order<\/a> that would prevent its removal from the Apple Development Program, enabling\u00a0the company to continue to help\u00a0<em>PUBG<\/em> and smaller games. The\u00a0tools available on the Apple Development Program allow Epic Games to update the Unreal Engine. If the Cary, North Carolina-based developer was to be removed from the Program, it would\u00a0jeopardize\u00a0the entire third-party developer ecosystem based around the versatility and user-friendliness of the Unreal Engine. In what could be a shrewd move by Sweeney, promoting a rival game can get the public to support Epic Games throughout what will be a long legal battle.<\/p>\n<p>It will ultimately be the word of the court that will decide the outcome of the lawsuit and not the public&#8217;s. Though it is humorous to see such a light-hearted remark, the importance of this case cannot be understated. It will have far-reaching implications across the entire industry, so much so that <a href=\"https:\/\/gamerant.com\/epic-unreal-engine-ios-apple-microsoft-statement\/\">Microsoft has made the decision to support Epic Games<\/a> to ensure that the Unreal Engine can continue to be used on mobile platforms.<\/p>\n<p><strong><em>PUBG Mobile<\/em><\/strong> is available on Android and iOS.<\/p>\n<p><span class=\"next-single\">MORE:\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/gamerant.com\/battle-royale-games-fortnite-fall-guys-apex-warzone-good\/\">What Makes a Good Battle Royale?<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n\n<p class=\"syndicated-attribution\"><figure class= \\\"wp-block-image alignnone \\\"><img src= \\\"http:\/\/itteacheritfreelance.hk\/test\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/05\/logo2-2.png\\\" alt=\\\"IT\u96fb\u8166\u88dc\u7fd2 java\u88dc\u7fd2 \u70ba\u5927\u5bb6\u914d\u5c0d\u96fb\u8166\u88dc\u7fd2,IT freelance, \u79c1\u4eba\u8001\u5e2b, PHP\u88dc\u7fd2,CSS\u88dc\u7fd2,XML,Java\u88dc\u7fd2,MySQL\u88dc\u7fd2,graphic design\u88dc\u7fd2,\u4e2d\u5c0f\u5b78ICT\u88dc\u7fd2,\u4e00\u5c0d\u4e00\u79c1\u4eba\u88dc\u7fd2\u548cFreelance\u81ea\u7531\u5de5\u4f5c\u914d\u5c0d\u3002\\\"\/><figcaption>\u7acb\u523b\u8a3b\u518a\u53ca\u5831\u540d\u96fb\u8166\u88dc\u7fd2\u8ab2\u7a0b\u5427!<\/figcaption><\/figure>\r\n<\/br>Find A Teacher Form:\r\n<\/br>https:\/\/docs.google.com\/forms\/d\/1vREBnX5n262umf4wU5U2pyTwvk9O-JrAgblA-wH9GFQ\/viewform?edit_requested=true#responses\r\n<\/br><\/br>Email:\r\n<\/br>public1989two@gmail.com<br><br><br><br><br><br><br>\r\n<a href=www.itsec.hk style=color:#FFFFFF;>www.itsec.hk<\/a><br>\r\n<a href=\\\"www.itsec.vip\\\" style=color:#FFFFFF;>www.itsec.vip<\/a><br>\r\n<a href=\\\"www.itseceu.uk\\\" style=color:#FFFFFF;>www.itseceu.uk<\/a><br><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<div class=\"mh-excerpt\"><p>Founder and CEO of Epic Games Tim Sweeney tweets his support for PlayerUnknown&#8217;s Battlegrounds on iOS, which uses Unreal Engine 4.<\/p>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"author":662,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"slim_seo":{"title":"Epic Games CEO Promotes PUBG Mobile to Take Jab at Apple - ITTeacherITFreelance.hk","description":"Founder and CEO of Epic Games Tim Sweeney tweets his support for PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds on iOS, which uses Unreal Engine 4."},"footnotes":""},"categories":[607],"tags":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/itteacheritfreelance.hk\/wordpress\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/64696"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/itteacheritfreelance.hk\/wordpress\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/itteacheritfreelance.hk\/wordpress\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/itteacheritfreelance.hk\/wordpress\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/662"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/itteacheritfreelance.hk\/wordpress\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=64696"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/itteacheritfreelance.hk\/wordpress\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/64696\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":64697,"href":"https:\/\/itteacheritfreelance.hk\/wordpress\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/64696\/revisions\/64697"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/itteacheritfreelance.hk\/wordpress\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=64696"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/itteacheritfreelance.hk\/wordpress\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=64696"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/itteacheritfreelance.hk\/wordpress\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=64696"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
