Episode 15: Fortnite Battle Royale with Lindsay Poss

Welcome to a special edition of The Real View from TPI. Epic Games, the maker of the popular online game, Fortnite, made a big splash with an antitrust complaint against Apple and Google this week. Epic made a bold move to offer discounts in Fortnite for in-app purchases made with V-Bucks outside of the Apple and Google store. This decision violated their terms of service, leading to the removal of the game from the app stores. This isn't the first time Epic Games has tangled with Google about the in-app purchases policy. Lindsay gives us a rundown of V-Bucks, Fortnite, and examples of other game platforms in the market.
