Epic has spent the last five years fighting Apple's in-app purchase policies. Now, after half a decade, the Epic Games Store and Fortnite will once again be available on iOS in Australia. A judge has found Apple's conduct likely diminished competition, in part for not allowing alternative payment methods, the Australian Financial Review reports.

After removing Fortnite from the App Store in 2020 amid its feud with Epic, Apple later brought the game back to its iPhone app marketplace in May. Fortnite also returned to iPhones in the EU last year, but only via the Epic Games Store for iOS.
