Epic Games, the maker of Fortnite, won a major US court battle against Google when a jury decided that the search engine giant wields illegal monopoly power through its Android app store.

Fortnite maker Epic Games wins US court fight with Google

Jurors found for Epic on all counts on Dec 11. The court in January will begin work on what remedies to implement.

"(Today's verdict) proves that Google's app store practices are illegal and they abuse their monopoly to extract exorbitant fees, stifle competition and reduce innovation," Epic Games said in a statement on its website.

If the ruling holds, it could upend the entire app store economy, potentially giving developers more sway over how their apps are distributed and how they profit off them.

Epic sued Google and Apple in 2020, accusing the tech titans of abusing control of their respective shops selling apps and other digital content for mobile devices powered by iOS or Android software.
