Sure, let’s dive into this chaotic whirlpool of Fortnite updates—or lack thereof—with a side of randomness and some quirky thoughts.
So, guess what? Fortnite still ain’t struttin’ back onto iOS like a toddler on a sugar high. Apple’s giving Epic the ol’ runaround, and Epic’s like, “Really? Again?” It’s like when you’re all ready for a party and then—bam!—the door’s bolted. Apparently, there’s this whole hoo-ha about a 30% in-game fee, or tax, or whatever they call it, that had everyone tangled in a courtroom tango. The judge in this dance? Totally team Epic.
Mid-May-ish was when Tim Sweeney dropped the news like a hot potato. “Fortnite’s coming back,” he says, like a waiter promising the pizza any moment now. But then, surprise! Epic waves around another banner saying the game’s back in Apple’s review—again. Meanwhile, the app’s just chilling in limbo. Epic resubmits it, tossed in like the delayed patch too, and who knows? Maybe it’ll flop out of review after May 16. Or maybe not. It’s all as murky as soup left out overnight.
Now, here’s a side note—because why not? ShiinaBR, my go-to Fortnite whisperer, said that 50% of apps get reviewed in a day—two days tops for 90%. Hmm. So why’s Fortnite stuck? Suspense? Drama? Did Apple forget they locked the gate? The conspiracy theories are brewing, I tell ya. Apple might be brooding over that past scuffle with Epic. Maybe, maybe not. Honestly, does anyone really know?
Poor gamers, waiting like kids at a candy store window. Epic, are you listening? If they could offer some peace offerings, like more freebie skins (Katalina was nice), that’d be swell. Everybody loves free stuff, right?
And there we are, stuck in this whirlpool of waiting. Hold tight, you Fortnite faithful. Who knows what twists are next?
