The ongoing legal battle between Epic Games and Apple has taken a significant turn as a California District Court has ruled that Apple 'willfully violated' a prior order regarding payment fees. This ruling, which cited Apple’s contempt for allegedly misleading the court, requires Apple to stop collecting fees on external payments. As a result, Epic Games announced that Fortnite will be returning to iPhones in the U.S. This situation follows Apple's previous legal disputes initiated by Epic when it attempted to implement its own payment system, leading to Fortnite's removal from the App Store.
"This is an injunction, not a negotiation. The Court enjoins Apple from implementing its new anticompetitive acts to avoid compliance with the Injunction."
"Effective immediately Apple will no longer impede developers' ability to communicate with users nor will they levy or impose a new commission on off-app purchases."
