Epic Games sued Google over pulling Fortnite from the Google Play store Thursday evening. Follows a similar lawsuit against Apple, which also sued Apple.
Google forced OnePlus to break off a deal that would have seen a special Fortnite launcher preinstalled on OnePlus phones. Google demanded that another Android phone maker, LG, abandon any plans to do the same.
Epic alleges that Google prevented LG from pre-installing the Epic Games app on LG devices. Epic also claims that LG had a contract’to block side downloading off Google Play store this year’.
Google declined to comment on the specifics of these deals when contacted by the verge. Google refused to comment when contacting the verge.
Epic gave in and wound up releasing Fortnite on the play store this April. After these deals were apparently scuttled, epic decided to release Fortnite.
Google kicked Fortnite from the play store for violating the store’s policies. Epic still offered the option to pay through Google’s payment mechanism, but for a higher price.
Epic sued the iPhone-maker, alleging similar complaints as it did against Google. Epic also parodied Apple’s iconic’1984′ ad.
