If you are having difficulty with the functionality of the Fortnite app or in-game play, Epic.
Fortnite and Samsung have partnered together to make Galaxy devices the best mobile platform for Fornite, with exclusive skins for Samsung users. If we assume that revenue from Android users reaches $2 million per day, then Epic Games would not have to lose out on $600,000 per day if they distribute the app outside of the Play Store. However, you can easily download Fortnite from the Samsung Galaxy store or from the Epic Games website. If Epic Games decides to forego the Google Play Store and have users install the game from their own website, then they can use whatever in-app purchase solution they wish and not be subject to Google’s 30% cut on sales. If Epic Games were to distribute Fortnite Mobile on Android via the Google Play Store, then they would lose out on 30% of all sales as apps distributed within the Play Store must use Google Play In-app Billing. Epic Games confirmed on Friday that it plans to bypass Googles Play Store for the eagerly awaited Android launch of Fortnite, its galactically popular online shooter. Distributing an app on the Google Play Store means an app will have higher visibility and reach a larger audience, but a high-profile title like Fortnite should have no problem with user discovery.
APK files by default, so if you can’t download the Epic Games Store app, try this workaround: Open your phone’s settings app. According to The Verge, Epic Games had planned to ask Google for an exemption to its 30 cut as its plans to use its own payment ecosystem instead of Google’s. Android can be picky about which browsers are allowed to download. The studio disagreed with Google’s standard cut of 30 for all apps hosted in its store. On the other hand, Android does not block users from installing applications sourced from outside of the Google Play Store. Epic Games’ decision to withhold Fortnite from the Google Play Store was purely monetary.
