Apple's legal intransigence has led to Fortnite being removed from the app store globally, with Epic Games seeking court intervention again.
Apple refuses to act on Fortnite's app submission until the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals rules on a partial stay of the injunction regarding third-party payment processors.
Epic Games has filed a new legal request asking for a motion to enforce the injunction and allow Fortnite back on the US App Store, accusing Apple of retaliatory behavior.
The situation has escalated with Epic Games accusing Apple of circumventing court orders and engaging in anticompetitive behavior, while Apple denies blocking Fortnite for EU users on iOS.
