Microsoft launching mobile app stores to compete with the iOS App Store and Google Play Store is huge news, and highlights that today’s PC stores from Microsoft, Valve, and Epic are tomorrow’s leading contenders to expand to mobile. https://t.co/6yVcxQdaON

Microsoft’s core market is way over a billion active users and they want many billions. I love this ambition.

Guess Epic doesn't care about the deal either or supports it due to the Mobile angle, Lol.

I'm a little surprised that Microsoft didn't give Epic a 10 year deal though, I mean, I'm not a developer so I don't have a clue but surely it must be next to no effort to release onto Epic Games Store if you already release on PC in general.

Maybe they don't see the point but I feel like, and again, I don't know for sure, but I would have assumed it would have been incredibly easy to do and yet another contract to show to regulators that they're expanding and helping other companies.
