    Google and Apple both banned Fortnite from their respective app stores and that’s what caused Epic to sue both of them in the first place.

      Well, Epic instigated them to ban the app so they could claim the ban as a tort under competition law.

      It’s more that Epic added their own payment system to the app (and offered, IIRC, a roughly 30% decrease in Vbucks price for people who opted to use it instead), Google and Apple both responded by removing the app, and then Epic sued them both and even aired a special presentation in Fortnite. All in the same day. Epic intentionally did this.
