U.S. District Court Judge Yvonne Gonzalez Rogers has upheld earlier federal court rulings related to Fortnite and Unreal Engine.

The new payment option appears to skirt Apple’s App Store and Google’s Play Store rules, which require Epic to give up a 30% cut of the revenue made through the app. In announcement on its website, Epic dropped
