Tim Sweeney admitted that he does not know what consequences the victory of Epic Games will bring to non-gaming applications

One of the fundamental points that Epic Games defends is the permission to use third—party payment systems in the App Store. According to the company, this will “put an end to Apple‘s monopoly”, and users will receive more convenient and cheaper payment methods inside applications. That’s just such an innovation will affect all iOS applications, not just games like Fortnite.

The judge asked Tim Sweeney, the head of Epic Games, if he was even familiar with the ecosystem of non-gaming applications: food deliveries, dating apps or messengers.

Sweeney said no. He also noted that he has no idea how his initiative will affect such services.

Epic Games has previously warned that the court’s decision in this case could turn into “serious problems” for Sony, Nintendo and Microsoft.
