"Apple Lifts Epic Games Ban in EU Amidst Antitrust Probe"

TL;DR Summary
Apple revoked Epic Games Sweden's developer license in response to its plans to launch a European iOS app store, but reinstated it less than a day later following an investigation by the European Commission into Apple's compliance with the Digital Markets Act. Epic claims the reversal occurred because Apple knew its move was a "serious violation of the DMA," and Apple stated that Epic has committed to follow the rules, including Apple's DMA policies. This means Epic can proceed with its plans to open an alternative European iOS store and bring Fortnite back to iOS in Europe.
