In its announcement post, Epic Games reminded its iOS players that they won’t be able to play the game when Chapter 2, Season 4 rolls around on 27 August. With that, the company asks its iOS users to compete with players on other platforms one last time. The company also took the chance to try and convince its iOS users to migrate to other platforms. And to really drive the point home, Epic Games is putting up prizes that are all basically jabs at Apple. One of the more basic ones is the Tart Tycoon, the company’s parody of Apple in its Nineteen Eighty-Fortnite video.
