Epic Games has launched the Epic Games Store for Android, expanding its gaming ecosystem outside of traditional platforms like the Google Play Store. The store initially opened with around 20 games and now boasts over 30 titles, including popular options like Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic and Warface: GO. Android users can redeem key titles for free until March 20. Epic Games is also offering developers improved terms compared to other platforms and deepening ties with academia through partnerships like the Unreal Academic Partnership with the University of North Carolina Greensboro. This partnership aims to offer students cutting-edge curriculum grounded in real-world applications of Unreal Engine technology, preparing them for future innovation within the gaming industry.
