The Epic Games Store is reshaping Android gaming with exclusive titles like Fortnite and Fall Guys not available on Google Play, offering gamers fresh alternatives and unique experiences.
As the digital gaming market continues to expand and diversify, Epic Games Store is making waves on Android by providing a competitor to Google’s Play Store, complete with exclusive games not available through the official Android platform.
While PC gamers have long benefited from the advantages of storefront competition, Android users are now starting to experience similar benefits. Epic’s increasing mobile presence, fueled by blockbuster hits and niche indie titles, is revolutionizing how Android gamers access and play games.
Here are eight highlight games that are currently available through the Epic Games Store and are not found on Google Play as of May 2025.
A graphically stunning 2D side-scrolling action game, Eastern Exorcist brings intense combat couched in the style of Chinese ink painting. Players take the role of either of two exorcists fighting grotesque ghosts and monstrous creatures.
Made by Wildfire Games, the game has been applauded for its demanding gameplay and unique art style. Having launched on Steam in 2021, it has established itself as known for its beauty and difficulty, hence, it is a strong attraction for fans of hard action.
Popular for its colorful visuals and frenzied gameplay, Fall Guys offers party-style multiplayer pandemonium to mobile. Initially created by Mediatonic and later bought out by Epic in 2022, the game consists of adorable bean-like creatures vying in a series of surprising minigames. Although formerly popular on consoles and PC alike, its absence in the Play Store makes its presence through Epic one of its defining features. Free to play and full of patches, it remains a social game staple.
Figment combines imaginative art and bittersweet narrative in a top-down isometric adventure. Set in the mind of a traumatized young boy, the game delves into grief through musical combat and surreal environments. Released in 2017 by Bedtime Digital Games, Figment was once listed on Google Play but is now delisted.
Its availability on Epic demonstrates a niche but meaningful gaming experience that delves into emotional strength through interactive narrative.
Continuing from where the first one left off, Figment 2: Creed Valley brings back the same characters to play through a beautifully depicted world. The sequel opens up the musical and psychological themes further, with new levels and challenges based on emotional rehabilitation.
While a prologue was released in 2021, the complete game made its appearance only in 2023 and is still not on Google Play. It’s in beta on the Apple App Store but fully available via Epic’s Android store.
A second entry by Bedtime Digital Games, The Forest Quartet, continues the studio’s theme of exploring grief in gameplay. Here, the player controls the ghost of a late band member as she re-examines the memories of her bandmates and aids them in their healing process.
The game has creepy sound design and puzzle gameplay, but players have also experienced performance problems with newer foldables such as the Galaxy Z Fold 6. Performance aside, its emotional narrative and graphics make it worth keeping an eye on.
Fortnite requires no introduction. Released in 2017, Epic’s lead multiplayer shooter has been a gaming phenomenon. Its battle royale mode, where players fight until just one is left, has brought in more than 100 million users globally. Although its presence was once strongly felt on Google Play, Epic pulled the game off in protest of Google’s payment policies.
Since then, Fortnite has come to be inextricably linked with Epic’s drive towards platform independence and is frequently the entry point for users downloading the Epic Games Store on Android.
Bridging car-based soccer to the smartphone screen, Rocket League Sideswipe is its mobile equivalent, the popular PC and console title. Optimized for touch-screen controls and truncated match lengths, the game delivers the same high-speed action as its original version. Its missing presence in the Play Store accentuates Epic’s approach of restricting first-party offerings solely within its platform.
This laid-back, lo-fi-infused top-down shooter combines arcade action with relaxing beats. While Super Space Club is more of a relaxed gaming experience, it never skimps on depth in its gameplay.
Frequently highlighted as Epic’s free game of the week, its regular US$4 mobile price is far cheaper than the US$15 PC game, which supports Epic’s attempt to bring premium indie experiences to mobile players.
As Epic Games grows its Android catalog, its carefully curated selection of exclusives undermines Google Play’s years-long supremacy. Whether by emotionally resonant indies or explosively popular multiplayer games, Epic is transforming mobile gaming availability, one download at a time.
