The Epic Games Store mobile app receives a significant upgrade, boasting nearly 20 new third-party game releases and the highly anticipated introduction of their free games program.

This expansion brings the popular free games program to Android globally and iOS within the European Union. Leading the charge is Dungeon of the Endless: Apogee, available for free until February 20th, followed by Bloons TD6.

A key feature of this update is enhanced cross-platform functionality. Users can seamlessly access their Epic accounts and game libraries across both Android and iOS devices, thanks to a new automatic update system.

A Strategic Move

Epic Games' commitment to its mobile storefront is evident. While facing stiff competition from Steam on PC, the free games initiative offers a compelling incentive for mobile gamers. Their developer-friendly revenue-sharing model continues to be a significant differentiator in their ongoing dispute with Apple.
