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 third-party games and the highly anticipated launch of their free games program for Android globally and iOS within the European Union.
This expansion brings a wave of new titles to the mobile storefront, most notably the integration of Epic's popular free game program. This month's free offering is Dungeon of the Endless: Apogee, available until February 20th, followed by Bloons TD6.
A key feature of this update is enhanced cross-platform functionality. Users can now access their Epic accounts seamlessly across both Android and iOS devices, and a new auto-update feature ensures their game library remains current.
Epic's Mobile Strategy
Epic Games' commitment to its mobile storefront is evident. While the Epic Games Store may have faced challenges on PC, competing with Steam's dominance, their free games initiative on mobile presents a compelling strategy. This approach also aligns with Epic's stated goal of supporting developers through its revenue-sharing model, a key element in its ongoing dispute with Apple.
