Samsung is set to unveil the device on August 9, so you’ll hear more from us then when the phone officially launches.

Now, what could make Epic Games considered this move is the additional revenue they can get. Through Google Play, Epic would need to turn over 30% of its revenue to Google. We should find out later in the year when the game officially comes to Android.
