Epic Games Store Enhances Social Features for Mobile and PC Experience
Epic Games Store's Ambitious Social Framework
Epic Games Store is set for a major revamp of its social features on mobile and PC platforms. Store head Steve Allison admitted, “Our social features on PC suck,” highlighting the need for improvement. The upcoming social framework aims to connect users similarly to major platforms like Steam, promoting interaction across devices.
Gaming Features on the Horizon
The revitalization includes group chat capabilities where users on Android, iOS, and PC can communicate seamlessly. Although we might be waiting for these features until post-summer 2025, other updates are coming sooner. The mobile version of the free games program will roll out in the fourth quarter of this year.
- Free games program might start slowly before weekly releases.
- Third-party games expected in December, with ARK: Ultimate Mobile Edition confirmed for launch.
- Epic reported a peak of 70 million monthly active users in September.
Despite facing obstacles in mobile installations, Epic is optimistic that upcoming features will drive user engagement.
