The Epic Games Store is now downloadable on iPhones in Brazil starting with iOS 26.5, marking a major shift in Apple's App Store restrictions in the country. Users can now download titles like Fortnite directly and participate in the Epic Rewards program, which offers up to 20% cashback on purchases made through the store.
This release follows an agreement between Apple and Brazil's competition authority (Cade) that permits alternative app stores on iOS devices within the country. The ruling effectively breaks Apple's monopoly on app distribution in Brazil, allowing companies like Epic Games to distribute their apps and games independently while maintaining their own payment systems and reward structures.
