Epic Games admitted that he really put a request in to Google to publish Fortnite in the Play Store on Android. However, Tim Sweeney still does not want to give 30% of profit from microtransactions and hopes to obtain a special indulgence.

We don’t want to be the exception, but I want to change the smartphone industry as a whole. We actually asked Google not to make use of its payment system. According to Epic, taking 30% of profits illegally if the platform is used on more than half of the devices in the world.

We also noticed that the distribution Agreement does not imply a requirement to use built in means of payment. It simply refers to the number of non-Treaty documents in which developers are asked to do it.

In turn, Epic Games as the owner of his own platform on the PC gives you the freedom of choice payment system.

However, Google is adamant.

Android provides developers with several methods to distribute applications. Google Play works on the basis of policies that allow us to invest in this platform and create the tools that ensure a successful business and secure user experience. We welcome any partners who appreciate Google Play, and their anticipated acceptance of our terms by other developers.

According to visiting lawyer GameDaily.biz, Tim Sweeney trying to make himself look “good guy” — his statements about the illegality of “tax” is far from obvious (they have yet to prove in court), and his words about the Agreement incorrect.

Epic Games, regularly gives 30% with microtransactions Apple, since on iOS there is a roundabout way to distribute apps. Desire to appear in the Play Store called criticism of a security breach of user devices.
