Godt nok fik Apple ikke lov til at true med at fjerne Unreal Engine-understøttelse til hele iOS-økosystemet, som ville ramme tusindvis af udviklere verden over, men de har dog fået lov til at fjerne Epics adgang til platformen. Ikke bare er Fortnite nu ikke at finde på iOS, men Epics udviklerkonti på platformen er nu blevet fjernet.
Som VCG skriver betyder dette at Epic Games nu ikke længere kan ansøge om at udgive nye applikationer, eller komme med opdateringer til eksisterende applikationer.
Det betyder desuden, at andre Epic Games-spil også er blevet fjernet fra AppStore, såsom battle Breakers og Infinity Blade. I en meddelelse til Mac Rumors siger Apple følgende:
"We are disappointed that we have had to terminate the Epic Games account on the App Store. We have worked with the team at Epic Games for many years on their launches and releases. The court recommended that Epic comply with the App Store guidelines while their case moves forward, guidelines they've followed for the past decade until they created this situation. Epic has refused.
"Instead they repeatedly submit Fortnite updates designed to violate the guidelines of the App Store. This is not fair to all other developers on the App Store and is putting customers in the middle of their fight. We hope that we can work together again in the future, but unfortunately that is not possible today."
