As a gamer for over 40 years, I don’t play games on my phone. I find it boring, monotonous, and repetitive, along with the ads, gatcha mechanics, and whatever trash they’re pushing. If I want to play a game, I’ll use my desktop or Switch.

I play shattered dungeon.

Game boy emulators.

TIC-80 and PICO8 games.

Native android Final Fantasy VI.

There are some good options for phone gaming.

Only for EU iPhones, right?

simple, 10 miesięcy temu

Yup. Worldwide on Android but only EU on iPhone.

rickdg, 10 miesięcy temu

Maybe the EU will eventually extend these rules to the iPad. I’ve already tried installing from the epic website and the process is not that bad.

Not in the US

Has this not been a thing for a while? What app do I have on my phone?

JusticeForPorygon, 10 miesięcy temu

No seriously did I had to install an Epic Games app to get Fortnite on Android a while back.

Have I seriously had a virus on my phone this whole time? Am I that dense?

DragonTypeWyvern, 10 miesięcy temu

I wouldn’t be surprised if they had a launcher before and they’re releasing a “Store” now that Google and Apple have been slapped with anti-trust lawsuits. I think your best bet would be asking the folks at the Epic forums.

JusticeForPorygon, 10 miesięcy temu

Did a little research and it looks like that’s exactly what it was, just an app that existed to update the few first party titles they had

trolololol, 10 miesięcy temu

That’s the real official thing. But today the journo heard it for the first time.

trolololol, 10 miesięcy temu do games w The Epic Games Store Officially Launches on Mobile Devices

Wait so what was it that I had installed in my phone from epic?

30p87, 10 miesięcy temu do games w The Epic Games Store Officially Launches on Mobile Devices

Epic about to introduce absolutely pieces of shit crappy third party launchers even on mobile.

Jesus, I was downloading and installing packages earlier for unreal 5.4 and it basically bricks my pc until the install is finished. Infuriating.

ivanafterall, 10 miesięcy temu do games w The Epic Games Store Officially Launches on Mobile Devices

I guess it makes sense, seeing as they’ve perfected the desktop experience.

DebatableRaccoon, 10 miesięcy temu do gaming w Around 50 of 100 Tango Gameworks Staff Moving Over to Krafton - IGN

Which means around 50 didn’t want to work for Krafton or already found jobs. Good for them.

LukeZaz, 10 miesięcy temu

Though I hope you’re right, there’s no guarantee of that:

It’s unclear why the remaining approximately 50 staff didn’t join Krafton, but it’s possible they had already found jobs elsewhere as the studio’s closure was announced three months earlier in May 2024.

Store exclusives are coming to mobile :/

Eggyhead, 10 miesięcy temu

Cue the space man gun meme.

It always was store exclusives.

MeatsOfRage, 10 miesięcy temu do games w The Epic Games Store Officially Launches on Mobile Devices

TLDR: you can get it from the url epic.download

Looks like it only has Fortnite, Fall Guys and Rocket League on there for now

sunzu2, 10 miesięcy temu do games w The Epic Games Store Officially Launches on Mobile Devices

Good but i hope everybody understands that this is not a real W for the peasants...

Dindonmasker, 10 miesięcy temu do games w The Epic Games Store Officially Launches on Mobile Devices

I don’t remember the last time i played a game on my phone tbh

Me either but it’s an ENORMOUS and very profitable industry.

Apple Made More Money on Games Than Xbox, Sony, Nintendo and Activision Combined in 2019

That’s JUST Apple and JUST mobile games.
