The Epic Games Store has officially launched on iPad for users in the European Union, following the recent iPadOS 18 update that allows third-party app stores. This change is a direct result of the EU's Digital Markets Act, which classified iPadOS as a 'gatekeeper' service, prompting Apple to enable alternative app stores and enhance user control over their devices. Users in the EU can now access popular games like Fortnite and Fall Guys through the Epic Store, while also having options like AltStore for additional apps. Epic Games has previously engaged in legal battles with Apple over app store policies, and this launch marks a significant victory after years of restrictions. To download the Epic Games Store, users must navigate through Apple's website, despite potential warnings from the company. Epic is planning to expand the availability of its store to more countries in the future, indicating a shift towards greater competition in the mobile app marketplace.
