Upcoming events for Epic Games Store
The company has more huge moments coming up, with Disney having recently invested $1.5bn to create a new ‘games and entertainment universe.’ This is set to offer fans of Disney, Pixar, Marvel, Star Wars, Avatar and other Disney properties ways to play and engage with characters and stories from within those worlds.
Fans have also been looking forward to Epic Games Store’s European iOS return which was supposed to take place this year. However, Apple terminated the Epic Games developer account in the second week of March, calling it a ‘threat.’
Whilst this is all happening, sales are expected to continue throughout the year with other variations being the ‘Mega Sale,’ ‘Summer Sale,’ ‘Halloween Sale,’ ‘Black Friday Sale,’ ‘The Game Awards Sale,’ and ending with the ‘Holiday Sale’ at the back of December.
