The Kasane Teto collab has finally been confirmed not long after Linux support was confirmed as well. It's a dream come true!

Big news: Fortnite is coming back to the App Store in Australia tomorrow! Today the Australia Federal Court told Apple to open up iOS after finding they violated competition law. Here’s what’s changing in Australia in March 2027: • iOS will be open to third party app stores • Australian users will be able to download apps directly from developers • Developers will be able to offer only alternative payment systems and Apple can’t require devs to offer Apple’s IAP, without charging junk fees • Apple cannot block developers from pointing users outside apps to make purchases • Apple is barred from charging junk fees on purchases made in third party app stores This is great news for developers worldwide and iOS users in Australia who will benefit from an open mobile app ecosystem.

Not yet, though Fortnite iOS is coming to Australia soon. Maybe we can also hope for Mac support someday?

Fortnite still gives the same error using the official Epic launcher. EAC V2 should be releasing soon so this error won't be around for much longer.
