Epic Games Store Now Pre-Installed on Millions of Android Devices

The good news is that all Telefónica customers in Latin America, Spain, the United Kingdom, and Germany will find the Epic Games Store preloaded on different smartphones, including those from Samsung, Xiaomi, OnePlus, Motorola, and Oppo. This development eradicates the need for sideloading apps or navigating alternative methods to access Epic’s famous titles including Fortnite, Rocket League Sideswipe, and Fall Guys.

It is pertinent to mention that this isn’t Telefónica’s first collaboration with Epic Games. The carrier has previously worked with Epic to bring the O2 Arena musical experience to Fortnite. Moreover, it was the first mobile operator to integrate Direct Carrier Billing for the Epic Games Store. There have been long-standing ties between Epic Games and Telefonica. So, gamers are you ready to interact with your favorite titles on mobile platforms?

According to Epic, this collaboration is just the beginning. The company has further plans to expand the partnership in the coming year. This partnership will reportedly include exclusive Fortnite skins, in-game events, or special promotions tailored to Telefónica users. If it pans out, the strategy will open the door for similar partnerships with other carriers worldwide.

Telefónica is giving millions of users faster, more seamless access to some famous gaming titles with the Epic Games Store’s direct integration. As Epic continues to disrupt traditional app store models, the future of mobile gaming looks more accessible, competitive, and gamer-focused than ever. Anyhow, this collaboration is a win-win situation for players everywhere.
