\n Mega-popular battle royale game<\/a> \u201cFortnite\u201d has been booted from the App Store after launching an in-app payment system that allowed it to circumvent Apple\u2019s stiff 30-percent fees.<\/p>\n

The move effectively bars any new downloads of \u201cFortnite\u201d onto iPhones or iPads, as the App Store is the only way to download new software onto Apple devices.<\/p>\n

Apple\u2019s ban comes after Epic Games, which makes the hit game, rolled out a new direct payment system. Users who opted to pay Epic directly, rather than through the App Store, would receive a 20 percent discount on their purchase.<\/p>\n

The California-based tech giant charges developers a 30-percent commission for in-app purchases and restricts them from telling users about cheaper purchasing options.<\/p>\n

Apple did not immedia<\/a>tely respond to a request for comment, but told The Verge in a statement that it \u201cwill make every effort to work with Epic to resolve these violations so they can return Fortnite to the App Store.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cEpic enabled a feature in its app which was not reviewed or approved by Apple, and they did so with the express intent of violating the App Store guidelines regarding in-app payments that apply to every developer who sells digital goods or services,\u201d Apple said.<\/p>\n

Epic CEO Tim Sweeney has in the past complained about the large cuts that Apple takes from in-app purchases, saying that simply selling hardware doesn\u2019t entitle the company to a large cut of developer revenue.\n <\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/div>\n
