Epic Games vs. Apple Trial Date Set
✖
The trial between Epic Games and Apple will start on May 3rd, 2021. According to MacRumors, the trial date was set by US District Court Northern California Judge Yvonne Gonzalez following a management conference. The trial follows a drawn-out battle between the two companies that s been going on since August. Epic Games had long decried Apple and Google s cut on in-app purchases as a form of payment monopolies but things came to a breaking point when Epic Games released an update for
Fortnite that violated Apple s terms of service. The game was removed from the App Store as a result, prompting Epic s current lawsuit.
