Fortnite is all DLC. All their money is in people buying cosmetics. I was involved in the Fortnite space for a while and on my website, just showing people the cosmetics available was a massive profit maker for me.
And since some people (of the younger variety) can't get a PC to game on, but do have a mobile device, cutting themselves off to that profit defeats some of the financial incentive to be on that platform.

As an Apple shareholder, I have to ask: what are they putting in the water over at Epic? The only charitable explanation I have is that they don't want to put it on the App Store at all, but they aren't allowed to do that.
