Epic's 'Fortnite' back on Apple App Store in Australia after antitrust ruling
Epic Games said its shooter title "Fortnite" will return to Apple's App Store in Australia on Thursday after a federal court ordered the iPhone maker to open up its iOS operating system, having found it violated competition law.
The United States Department of Justice has reached an impasse with Apple in their antitrust lawsuit, despite the court extending the deadline for document collection. The DOJ is seeking additional documents from Apple, but Apple argues that doing so would extend the case by 22 months, causing further delays. Over 11 million documents have already been evaluated, covering an 18-year period.
Both sides reached a stalemate, with the court now determining if Apple should provide more recent documents or if the DOJ's case lacks sufficient evidence.
