You know, as much as I love a petty legal pissing contest, I really didn’t want Epic vs Apple to become my thing every morning. But here we are, and at the very least someone sensible has finally come in and given judgement — on part of the case, anyway.

Just to recap, this is part of the delightful Epic Games vs Apple (and, to a lesser extent, Google) war, which began when Epic activated a payment option on the mobile Fortnite app which bypassed Apple’s built-in payment system. Apple banned Fortnite from the App Store, then promptly set about blocking Epic’s access to developer tools, including those that would allow it to update the Unreal Engine on iOS. Epic, which has been using the ban to call for a change to Apple’s 30% standard paycut, filed an injunction to stop Apple from cutting it off. Apple spit back that the issue was entirely of Epic’s own making, meaning they have no grounds to beg for help.
