Epic Games is escalating its efforts to pressure Apple to allow its game Fortnite into its App Store, with a new court filing asking Judge Yvonne Gonzalez

Epic Games said 'Fortnite' will be offline on Apple devices because the iPhone maker blocked its app update. The move comes just weeks after Epic Games cheered a judge's ruling that limited the commissions that Apple makes through apps.

Epic Games' "Fortnite" video game was not available on Apple's iPhone devices in the European Union and the United States on Friday. Access to Fortnite via Apple's iPhone Operating System and through its App Store will be unavailable worldwide until Apple unblocks it,
