PSA: Epic will honor V-boxes trapped on Apple platforms


With everything Second Continuing, you forgot for a moment the legal battle going on over Epic Games and Apple Pay’s Fortnight Creator’s alternative payment system that booted it out of the App Store. The lawsuit is still ongoing, but here’s a small positive: Epic announced last Friday that your V-boxes trapped in Fortnight’s M the Cause and iOS version will be honored and credited to your account so you can spend them on other platforms.

Epic says players who have purchased V-Bucks on iOS and Mama Cause should receive their credit by today, November 9th. Those V-Bucks can be spent on any platform that can play Fortnite except iOS or MacCause.

If you’re wondering how long the legal battle has been, we have a full storystream and a short timeline that can catch you, but there’s also a shorter version: Apple was finally forced to continue updating Epic from the developer’s Unreal engine for use, but Fornite Stay away from the App Store.

From a gaming standpoint, Epic Battle of Epic has dropped iOS and Mama Cause versions Fornite A shadow of his former self. Play outside of Apple’s ecosystem is disabled and the main progress loop that players return to the game – seasonal updates and the bat pass system – is inaccessible. Fortnight on the Apple Plus platforms never saw this summer’s “Nexus and War 2” Marvel update, nor did it say anything about the series of in-game concerts that followed, and what content any of them could return. If players want to spend their V-bucks and stay up-to-date with the game, they have to do this somewhere else.
