Epic has filed a civil antitrust lawsuit following Apple’s removal of Fortnite from the App StoreThe legal complaint, filed in the US District Court for the Northern District of California, seeks to establish Apple’s App Store as a monopoly, and the civil suit is seeking injunctive relief to “allow fair competition” in mobile app distribution. Non-US transactions through Epic Games International, S.à r.l. "Epic agreed to the App Store terms and guidelines freely and we're glad they've built such a successful business on the App Store. Instead, Epic is seeking injunctive relief to allow fair competition in these two key markets that directly affect hundreds of millions of consumers and tens of thousands, if not more, of third-party app developers.”Here are Epic’s primary claims in support of the argument Apple has violated US antitrust law: Apple unlawfully maintains its monopoly power in the iOS App Distribution Market through the anti-competitive acts described herein, including by imposing technical and contractual restrictions on iOS, which prevents the distribution of iOS apps through means other than the App Store and prevents developers from distributing competing app stores to iOS users.Apple unlawfully maintains its monopoly power in the iOS App Distribution Market through its unlawful denial to Epic and other app distributors of an essential facility—access to iOS—which prevents them from competing in the iOS App Distribution Market.To reach iOS users, Apple forces developers to agree to Apple’s unlawful terms contained in its Developer Agreement and to comply with Apple’s App Store Review Guidelines, including the requirement iOS developers distribute their apps through the App Store. Further, Section 3.1.3 of Apple’s App Store Review Guidelines unlawfully prohibits developers from “directly or indirectly target[ing] iOS users to use a purchasing method other than in-app purchase”.Apple is able to unlawfully condition access to the App Store on the developer’s use of a second product—In-App Purchase—for in-app sales of in-app content.

Epic is able to make the pricing argument because it specifically lowered prices on its in-game “In other words, app developers are coerced into using In-App Purchase by virtue of wanting to use the App Store. "Google has relegated its motto to nearly an afterthought, and is using its size to do evil upon competitors, innovators, customers, and users in a slew of markets it has grown to monopolise," it says.It describes a deal that Epic Games had reached with phone-maker OnePlus to make its games available "seamlessly" on their devices.

Fortnite: Apple ban sparks court action from Epic Games Fortnite's British teenage millionaire: One year later Apple claims 'half a trillion dollars' App Store economy

Game developer and publisher Epic Games has filed a lawsuit against Apple over the removal of the iOS version of its battle royale game Fortnite from the App Store. Epic picked a fight on purpose. “Through its Developer Agreement and unlawful policies, Apple expressly conditions the use of its App Store on the use of its In-App Purchase to the exclusion of alternative solutions in a per se unlawful tying arrangement.”Epic in its complaint leans heavily on the Sherman Antitrust Act of 1890, a monumental piece of antitrust legislation in the US used to break up monopolies during the turn of the 20th century.
