Epic Games Store's Mobile App Gets a Massive Upgrade
Epic Games Store's mobile application is undergoing a significant transformation. This update includes the addition of nearly 20 new third-party games and the highly anticipated launch of their free games program for Android globally and iOS within the European Union.
The rollout features a wave of third-party titles and the integration of Epic's popular free games program. This month's free offering is Dungeon of the Endless: Apogee, available until February 20th, followed by Bloons TD6.
A key feature of this upgrade is enhanced cross-platform functionality. Users can now seamlessly access their Epic accounts and game progress across both Android and iOS devices. An automatic update feature ensures game libraries remain current.
A Strategic Move
Epic Games' commitment to its mobile storefront is evident. While facing competition from established platforms like Steam on PC, the introduction of free games is a compelling strategy for attracting mobile users.
Epic's pro-developer revenue-sharing model, a significant point in their ongoing dispute with Apple, is also a key differentiator.
