Epic Games is trying to convince a California court to reinstate Fortnite on the Apple App Store pending legal proceedings, arguing that doing so is in the"public interest," court documents show.
The gambit comes amid a battle over whether Apple's tight control over the App Store, and its 30% cut of revenue, counts as monopolistic behavior.from its online mobile apps marketplace on August 13 after Epic released an update that dodges revenue sharing with the iPhone maker.
