01:27 PM EDT, 05/09/2025 (MT Newswires) -- Apple ( AAPL ) has been asked to include Epic Games' Fortnite on the App Store in the US, Fortnite said on social media platform X Friday.

Fortnite said it has submitted its request to Apple ( AAPL ) for review.

Apple ( AAPL ) removed Fortnite from its App Store in 2020, leading to a court battle between Apple ( AAPL ) and the video game and software developer.

Epic Games said it will be launching two purchasing options when Fortnite returns to the App Store so players will be able to purchase games either through Apple's ( AAPL ) in-app purchase or Epic's payment system.

To entice players, Epic Games said it is offering a 20% reward bonus on using its payment system for buying certain games.
