Epic Games Store Mobile Gets a Massive Upgrade
The Epic Games Store mobile app 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.
This expansion marks a major step for the mobile storefront. The first wave of third-party titles is now available, alongside the introduction of Epic's popular free game program. Currently, Dungeon of the Endless: Apogee is free to claim until February 20th, followed by Bloons TD6.
A key focus of this update is cross-platform integration. Users can now seamlessly access their Epic accounts and game libraries across both Android and iOS devices. An automatic update feature ensures that game catalogues remain current.
A Strategic Move by Epic
Epic's commitment to its mobile storefront is evident. While the Epic Games Store has faced challenges competing with Steam on PC, the introduction of free games on mobile presents a compelling strategy. This move also reinforces Epic's pro-developer stance, highlighting their revenue-sharing model as a key differentiator in their ongoing dispute with Apple.
