Epic Games warns users who log in with Apple ID accounts will be blocked by the tech giant

Apple added a new restriction in its ongoing conflict with Epic Games that will block some users from their accounts.

Epic revealed that the tech giant will no longer provide access via ‘Sign in with Apple’, and it could go into effect on September 11.

The video game maker encourages users to update their account email address and password before the change takes effect.

The news is just the tip of the iceberg in the legal battle between the two companies, which began last month when Apple removed the popular game Fornite from its App Store.

Epic launched its own direct payment on its website in August that gives users discounts and avoids paying Apple a 30 percent fee for in-app purchases, which Apple had cited as a violation.

Epic Games apps, including Fortnite, can be downloaded for free on the App Store. However, users generally have to make in-app purchases when they start playing. IPhone and iPad users reportedly spent around $ 90 million on in-app purchases in the last three months alone.

However, Epic only received roughly $ 60 million of that revenue as they are required to give Apple a 30 percent cut for hosting the games on their App Store.

Epic filed a lawsuit in a US court seeking not to get money from Apple, but rather injunctions that would end many of the companies’ practices related to their app stores.

A few weeks after receiving the service, Apple retaliated by removing all Epic developer accounts and products from the App Store, meaning users can no longer download the company’s games on iPhones and iPads.

While Apple’s latest restriction is another blow to Epic, the move may further harm its customers.

‘Apple will no longer allow users to log into Epic Games accounts using’ Sign in with Apple ‘as early as September 11, 2020,’ Epic shard in a post on its website.

‘If you’ve already used’ Sign in with Apple ‘, please update your Epic Games account email address and password immediately so you can sign in after September 11, 2020.’

Apple requires users to sign in with their Apple ID when accessing certain accounts and services.

However, if users don’t update their email, Epic says the accounts can be recovered with the help of their customer service.

In addition to filing an antitrust lawsuit against Apple, Epic has also targeted the company on social media.

The firm launched a campaign with the hashtag #FreeFortnite, urging gamers to seek refunds from Apple if they lose access to the game, and creating a parody of Apple’s famous ‘1984’ TV ad.

Attorneys for Epic Games wrote in an August filing: “Then when Epic sued Apple to break its monopoly on app stores and in-app payments, Apple retaliated fiercely.”

He told Epic that by August 28, Apple will cut off Epic’s access to all development tools necessary to create software for Apple platforms, including Unreal Engine Epic offerings to third-party developers, which Apple has never claimed. violates any Apple policy. ‘

There are three ways to play: ‘Battle Royale’, ‘Save The World’ and ‘Playground’.

Fortnite is a battle royale style survival shooter game in which players create a superhero avatar and compete against each other on a dystopian island.

Users compete in teams of up to three to complete a variety of missions.

The game is rumored to be added to the free version of the game in the future.

While Save The World may be the original version of the game, its brother mode is by far the most popular.

Battle Royale is a survival game where players create a superhero avatar and compete against each other on a dystopian island.

Each game, or “match,” as each competition is known, begins with 100 players.

Armed with quirky weapons and fun dancing, the game has spread throughout the video game world with kids flocking.

While there is no exact figure for how many kids play Fortnite, the game has so far attracted an audience of more than 125 million players.

It involved groups of up to four people working as a team and players can hone their skills as practice before entering Battle Royale, where they will face off against better players.
