    “Epic Games prevails in antitrust battle against Google Play”

    A jury ruled on Monday that Google had violated antitrust laws to extract fees and limit competition from Epic Games and other developers on its Play mobile app store, in a case that could rewrite the rules on how thousands of businesses make money on Google’s smartphone operating system, Android.

    After deliberating for a little more than three hours, the nine-person federal jury sided with Epic Games on all 11 questions in a monthlong trial that was the latest turn in a three-year legal battle.

    The jury in San Francisco found that Epic, the maker of the hit game Fortnite, proved that Google maintained a monopoly in the smartphone app store market and engaged in anticompetitive conduct that harmed the videogame maker.

    Google could be forced to alter its Play Store rules, allowing other companies to offer competing app stores and making it easier for developers to avoid the cut it collects from in-app purchases. And the verdict could imperil the company’s ability to collect commissions from app store purchases.

    Judge James Donato will decide the remedies needed to address Google’s conduct early next year.

    This is a developing story. Check back for updates.
