The war between Epic Games and Apple goes for a long time, regardless of the reasons that both companies may have to fight in court, the truth is that this movement does not help the gaming community. And it is that the players are the biggest victims of this conflict that may seem trivial, but it is one of the most relevant experienced in recent years.
After removing Fortnite from the App Store, those in the block also extended their penalty to the Unreal Engine SDK in his shop. And these are big words since many developers now look with suspicion on the future of their titles.
Epic Games versus Apple
Epic Games filed a formal lawsuit against those of Cupertino, and now another of the affected giants joins the fight. And it is that Microsoft has also suffered the problems of debating with Apple with Cloud Gaming. However, the statement that they have just presented in only in support of the use of Unreal Engine in the App Store.
Phil Spencer has reported it through Twitter, where he has shared the link to document formal firmado by Kvein Gammil.
Today we are submitting a statement in support of Epic’s request to maintain access to the Apple SDK for its Unreal Engine. Making sure Epic has access to the latest Apple technology is the right thing to do for game developers and gamers.
It remains to be seen how all this ends and if more voices join the battle. Beyond the ambitions of Tim Sweeney and his team, the truth is that access to the Unreal Engine as a tool for creatives is something that hurts us all.
