      The proliferation of these false headlines is odd. Epic submitted Fortnite for final release on Google Play this morning at 4am, and it's in the queue, with the status "We're currently reviewing your app."https://www.newsweek.com/fortnite-google-play-store-rejected-android-devices-1476910 …

      This is the normal process for first-time game submissions. Though Fortnite has been available from our web site and the Samsung store for a while, this is the first release submission to Google Play.

      Please be patient and give Google time to deliberate on what is certainly a major decision for the future of the tech industry: whether platforms support ecosystems open to fair competition, or are resource monopolies granting special rights and privileges for themselves.

      All signs point to an inevitable opening, and to the timeliness of doing it now. The big decision is whether it will be done now by great software engineers, or a bit later by courts and regulators throughout a prolonged period of industry malaise. Let the engineers do it!

          But you still submit via App store without requiring an exception? Same TOS excuse? Or where's the Apple crusade

          Winning here would be significant progress towards accomplishing the same for Apple. As for choosing a starting point, Android makes more sense as there is better leverage there.

          What about Apple? what is the difference - you pay them 30% fee as well.

          I still think they do for sure, they've already made renovations for Battle Breakers and (likely) Dauntless soon. It's a good amount of money to be made regardless of Google opening up to fair dealings.

          I think we know enough about Corporate America to know companies aren't going to let go of market power out of the goodness of their hearts. They'll hold on to their market power for as long as it takes. If it's an inevitability, it's probably going to be through the courts.
