The Epic Games Store on mobile just got a lot more epic, with the addition of nearly 20 third-party games from incredible developers, the launch of our Free Games program on Android worldwide and iOS in the European Union, and a variety of new layout updates and functionality to the app.
Epic Games is distributing first wave of games from third-party mobile developers, now available alongside Fortnite, Fall Guys and Rocket League Sideswipe on the Epic Games Store mobile app. Following launch on mobile just a few months ago, this represents a major step forward for the store and we’re thankful for the partners joining the company on this journey.
To celebrate, Epic Games launching the free games program on mobile, kicking off with Dungeon of the Endless: Apogee* and Bloons TD 6, available now on Android and iOS through the Epic Games Store mobile app until February 20.
In addition to great third-party games, Epic games is also introducing new app features, including Epic Account login, with persistent status across Epic’s games on iOS and Android. The company has also added a new auto-update feature to the Epic Games Store Mobile app, so that your games and apps are ready when you are.
For developers, the Epic Games Store brings the same great terms to mobile, including the 88/12 revenue share for payments we process and 0% on third party payments.
The company also recently debuted Launch Everywhere with Epic. This new program offers a royalty rate reduction from 5% to 3.5% on all platforms and stores for eligible Unreal Engine games published on the Epic Games Store from 2025 onwards.
To be eligible, games must ship on the Epic Games Store before or at the same time it’s released on other stores on corresponding platforms you support (PC, Mac, Android, and in the future, iOS). This program is inclusive of games participating in Epic First Run, which helps developers to maximize their revenue share during their initial run on the Store.
