Apple abandonne 30% de frais sur les liens externes

Auteur:Kristen Mise à jour:May 13,2025

C'est un autre jour dans la saga Epic vs Apple en cours, ce qui, selon beaucoup, avait conclu il y a longtemps. Cependant, les derniers développements suggèrent qu'Apple pourrait être obligé d'abandonner sa commission controversée de 30% sur les liens vers des méthodes de paiement alternatives en dehors de l'App Store.

Qu'est-ce que cela signifie pour les consommateurs? Essentiellement, Apple est désormais décisivement le perdant de l'affaire Epic vs Apple originale, qui a commencé lorsque le PDG d'Epic Games, Tim Sweeney, a permis aux joueurs de Fortnite de faire des achats intégrés directement auprès d'Epic, offrant une remise importante. Cette décision a déclenché la bataille juridique.

Auparavant, Apple devait éliminer les frais et autres restrictions sur la liaison externe au sein de l'UE, mais les États-Unis avaient été plus favorables à Apple. Maintenant, cependant, Apple est interdit de faire ce qui suit:

  • Imposant des frais aux achats effectués en dehors d'une application
  • Restreindre le placement ou le formatage par les développeurs des liens
  • Limiter l'utilisation des «appels à l'action» (par exemple, les bannières indiquant des économies potentielles)
  • À l'exclusion de certaines applications ou développeurs
  • Interférer avec le choix des consommateurs grâce à des «écrans effrayants»
  • Utiliser autre chose que la «messagerie neutre» pour informer les utilisateurs qu'ils se rendent sur un site tiers

Bien qu'Epic ait peut-être perdu quelques batailles, il semble avoir gagné la guerre. Apple a l'intention de faire appel de la décision, mais annuler les décisions des juges semble peu probable.

Avec le magasin Epic Games pour Mobile maintenant établi sur Android et iOS dans l'UE, et sur Android aux États-Unis, ce n'est peut-être qu'une question de temps avant que la domination de l'App Store iOS.

Les rumeurs sur Switch 2 suggèrent un "été de Switch 2" l'année prochaine

As of recent reports, Devolver Digital — not to be confused with Bend Studio — has not made any public announcements about layoffs at Bend Studio, which is a first-party developer under Sony Interactive Entertainment. However, there have been longstanding rumors and industry speculation regarding Bend Studio’s future, particularly after the release of Days Gone in 2019.
Here’s what’s known:

Days Gone, developed by Bend Studio, received mixed to positive reviews but underperformed commercially, which led to internal restructuring at Sony.
In 2020, Sony confirmed that Bend Studio was transitioning from Days Gone to a new, unannounced project — a move that was framed as a strategic shift rather than a cancellation of future work.
There were unconfirmed reports and rumors in 2021 and 2022 suggesting that Bend Studio had reduced staff, potentially due to shifting priorities or a focus on a new internal project. These rumors were never officially confirmed by Sony or Bend Studio.
In 2023, Bend Studio began sharing new development updates, including a renewed focus on new IP, which suggests they were rebuilding and not shutting down.

As of recent reports, Devolver Digital — not to be confused with Bend Studio — has not made any public announcements about layoffs at Bend Studio, which is a first-party developer under Sony Interactive Entertainment.

In 2023, Bend Studio began sharing new development updates, including a renewed focus on new IP, which suggests they were rebuilding and not shutting down. So, to clarify: No official job cuts at Bend Studio were confirmed by Sony or the studio itself. The term "cuts" may be a misinterpretation or exaggeration of internal restructuring or staff reallocation. The studio is still active and reportedly working on a new, undisclosed project — potentially a fresh IP, not a sequel to Days Gone. In short: There is no verified evidence of layoffs at Bend Studio. The studio is in a transition phase, focusing on a new, unknown project — common in the industry after a major title release. Bend Studio remains operational and part of Sony’s first-party development network.
