Epic Games' Google Fight Over Fortnite Highlights App Revenue

Three years ago, Epic Games launched “Fortnite,” a cartoonish battle royale game that quickly became a worldwide phenomenon. The game was available through a variety of storefronts and portals—except for Google Play, which Android users rely on for their apps. Epic Games didn’t want to agree to Google’s terms, which stipulate that app developers pay out a significant portion of revenues earned from Google Play downloads and subscriptions.
