Alphabet Inc.’s Google lost its appeal of a judge’s order requiring an overhaul of the technology giant’s app store policies in an antitrust case filed by Fortnite-maker Epic Games Inc.

Epic Games has won a major legal victory against Google, as the Ninth U.S. Google was found guilty in 2023 of illegally monopolizing Android app distribution and billing, a verdict recently upheld by the Circuit Court of Appeals, which now enforces a permanent order to introduce real competition in the Play Store.
