Apple Terminates Epic Games' Developer Account
My feeling is that this whole situation is mostly going as Tim Sweeney intended. He was itching for a fight, wanted to sue Apple. The harsher that Apple retaliates, the better Epic&#x27;s court case. Apple is playing right into his hands.<p>Did Sweeney anticipate Apple&#x27;s threat to Unreal Engine? Maybe, maybe not. But the temporary restraining order did block that threat, at least for now.<p>I don&#x27;t think Epic ever intended to release the new Fortnite season on Apple platforms.<p>This is a long play, not a short play. In the short term, Epic loses money by not having Fortnite on Apple devices. But in the long term, it&#x27;s much better for Epic to break Apple&#x27;s App Store monopoly.
