Epic Games has announced that it will be expanding its games marketplace to Android globally and to iOS within the European Union, thanks to the Digital Markets Act (DMA) enacted this year. This legislation mandates that Apple allow third-party app stores on its mobile platform, facilitating Epic’s return to iOS.

The mobile catalog will debut with three titles: Fortnite, which is making its comeback to iOS; Rocket League Sideswipe, a spin-off of the popular racing game; and the new Fall Guys Mobile, which will support cross-play and cross-progression with its PC and console versions.

These games will be available on AltStore, an independent iOS app store, and will later launch on Aptoide for iOS and One Store for Android. Epic is also in talks with Microsoft about including the titles on the upcoming Xbox mobile store, though details are still pending.

In a recent briefing, Epic Games CEO Tim Sweeney expressed gratitude to the European Commission for the DMA, highlighting its role in enforcing competitive practices and challenging major tech companies like Apple and Google.
