Developers joining the platform will benefit from an 88/12 revenue split and reduced royalty rates for Unreal Engine games. The expansion aims to counter restrictive fees imposed by Apple and Google, with Epic also covering the iOS Core Technology Fee for a year for developers participating in the free games program. ## Content # Epic Games Expands Mobile Store with Third-Party Titles and Free Games Program Epic Games is making a significant move to enhance its mobile game store by bringing in nearly 20 third-party titles and introducing a free games program. This expansion, which takes place on both Android worldwide and iOS in the EU, marks a new chapter for Epic's mobile store that previously only featured its own popular titles such as Fortnite and Rocket League. To support developers joining the platform, Epic will cover the iOS Core Technology Fee for one year for those participating in its free games program. This initiative aims to counteract what Epic views as restrictive and anti-competitive fees imposed by Apple. ## Free Games Program The new free games program will offer new games monthly and potentially weekly in the future. This initiative aims to bring a steady stream of fresh content to users, enhancing their engagement with the store. ## Developer Benefits Developers who bring their games to the Epic Games Store can look forward to several significant advantages: - **Revenue Share**: An 88/12 revenue split in favor of the developers for payments processed by Epic. - **Reduced Royalty Rates**: For games developed with Unreal Engine, reduced royalty rates are available under the Launch Everywhere with Epic program. - **Feature Enhancements**: The store will support auto-updates and a persistent Epic Account login across devices, simplifying the experience for both users and developers. ## Addressing Competition Epic Games has been vocal about its stance against the fees and practices of Apple and Google, which it argues hinder competition. By covering the iOS fees and advocating for the enforcement of the Digital Markets Act by the EU, Epic hopes to create a more level playing field for developers and improve digital competition. Despite its ongoing legal challenges with Apple and Google, Epic remains committed to breaking down barriers and supporting developers. The expansion of the mobile store and the introduction of the free games program are steps towards this objective, offering more opportunities for both developers and gamers alike. ## Similar posts on daily.dev - [Don’t just attend KubeCon \+ CloudNativeCon, Merge Forward your experience\!](https://daily.dev/posts/don-t-just-attend-kubecon-cloudnativecon-merge-forward-your-experience--l0rpp73x8) · CNCF · 1 upvotes · 0 comments - [Announcing H2 2026 KCDs](https://daily.dev/posts/announcing-h2-2026-kcds-m96goajm1) · CNCF · 1 upvotes · 0 comments - [Two months of Open Community Groups](https://daily.dev/posts/two-months-of-open-community-groups-asf52zhbs) · CNCF · 0 upvotes · 0 comments - [CNCF Unveils Schedule for KubeCon \+ CloudNativeCon Europe 2026](https://daily.dev/posts/cncf-unveils-schedule-for-kubecon-cloudnativecon-europe-2026-ikhcoa5cb) · CNCF · 2 upvotes · 0 comments - [CNCF Debuts KubeCon \+ CloudNativeCon Japan 2026 Schedule](https://daily.dev/posts/cncf-debuts-kubecon-cloudnativecon-japan-2026-schedule-xp5pyudub) · CNCF · 1 upvotes · 0 comments --- Tags: [#android](https://daily.dev/tags/android), [#ios](https://daily.dev/tags/ios), [#mobile-gaming](https://daily.dev/tags/mobile-gaming) [View this post on daily.dev](https://daily.dev/posts/epic-games-expands-mobile-game-store-and-supports-developers-with-ios-fee-coverage-unbadosgw) ```json {"@context":"https://schema.org","@graph":[{"@type":"Organization","@id":"https://daily.dev/#organization","name":"daily.dev","url":"https://daily.dev","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://daily.dev/apple-touch-icon.png","width":180,"height":180},"sameAs":["https://twitter.com/dailydotdev","https://github.com/dailydotdev","https://www.linkedin.com/company/daily-dev-ltd"]},{"@type":"WebSite","@id":"https://daily.dev/#website","url":"https://daily.dev","name":"daily.dev","publisher":{"@id":"https://daily.dev/#organization"},"potentialAction":{"@type":"SearchAction","target":{"@type":"EntryPoint","urlTemplate":"https://daily.dev/search?q={search_term_string}"},"query-input":"required name=search_term_string"}}]} {"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"TechArticle","headline":"Epic Games Expands Mobile Game Store and Supports Developers with iOS Fee Coverage","url":"https://daily.dev/posts/epic-games-expands-mobile-game-store-and-supports-developers-with-ios-fee-coverage-unbadosgw","mainEntityOfPage":{"@type":"WebPage","@id":"https://daily.dev/posts/epic-games-expands-mobile-game-store-and-supports-developers-with-ios-fee-coverage-unbadosgw"},"datePublished":"2025-01-23T18:44:06.083Z","dateModified":"2025-01-24T15:38:24.432Z","description":"Epic Games is expanding its mobile game store to include nearly 20 third-party titles and a new free games program on Android globally and iOS in the EU....","image":"https://media.daily.dev/image/upload/f_auto,q_auto/v1/posts/4158e64ae7f508c23b5d1a3ce00838f2?_a=AQAEuj9","thumbnailUrl":"https://media.daily.dev/image/upload/f_auto,q_auto/v1/posts/4158e64ae7f508c23b5d1a3ce00838f2?_a=AQAEuj9","isAccessibleForFree":true,"articleSection":"Collections","inLanguage":"en","publisher":{"@type":"Organization","name":"daily.dev","url":"https://daily.dev","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://daily.dev/apple-touch-icon.png","width":180,"height":180}},"author":{"@type":"Organization","name":"Collections","logo":"https://media.daily.dev/image/upload/s--fk_6ycEi--/f_auto,q_auto/v1780996001/logos/collections?_a=BAMAMiWQ0","url":"https://daily.dev/sources/collections"},"commentCount":0,"discussionUrl":"https://daily.dev/posts/epic-games-expands-mobile-game-store-and-supports-developers-with-ios-fee-coverage-unbadosgw","interactionStatistic":[{"@type":"InteractionCounter","interactionType":{"@type":"LikeAction"},"userInteractionCount":2},{"@type":"InteractionCounter","interactionType":{"@type":"CommentAction"},"userInteractionCount":0}],"keywords":"android,ios,mobile-gaming","timeRequired":"PT2M"} {"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"BreadcrumbList","itemListElement":[{"@type":"ListItem","position":1,"name":"Home","item":"https://daily.dev"},{"@type":"ListItem","position":2,"name":"Collections","item":"https://daily.dev/sources/collections"},{"@type":"ListItem","position":3,"name":"Epic Games Expands Mobile Game Store and Supports Developers with iOS Fee Coverage"}]} ```
