Mornin’! Subway Surfers just won’t die. Guess how many downloads it got last month alone, 12 years after release. The answer is at the end of this email.

In today’s newsletter: The Epic Games Store is just around the corner, two games score 9.0 on MiniReview, a cool game sequel is down from $6.49 to $0, a couple of popular games got some big updates, and much more!

🎮 The Epic Games Store has been submitted to Apple for Final Notarization

Epic Games Store's iOS launch seems to be set for sometime this year already!

According to a Tweet from the company, Fortnite, Rocket League Sideswipe, and the Epic Games Store have all been submitted for final approval from Apple.

So after years of legal fights between the two companies, Epic Games may soon get their way - at least in Europe.

For most players, the launch isn’t a huge deal. But its potential impact is. Because over the years, Epic and Xbox’s upcoming app stores could lead to Apple losing its monopoly power, which might be good news for us all in the long term.
