Epic Games to bring webshops for developers to avoid Apple App Store fees

After getting a favourable judgement from the US jury against Apple, Epic Games is now set to allow developers to open webshops which will offer players an out-of-app purchase option to circumvent fees from Apple and Google.

Epic Games in its blog post said: “In June 2025, we are releasing a new feature enabling developers to launch their own webshops hosted by the Epic Games Store. These webshops can offer players out-of-app purchases, as a more cost-effective alternative to in-app purchases, where Apple, Google, and others charge exorbitant fees.”
