The Fortnite lawsuit is back — the Epic v. Google trial finally kicks off November 6th, with Epic Games dragging Google into court to defend its Google Play app store against antitrust claims.

On Monday, Fortnite publisher Epic Games will drag a tech giant into court, alleging that its mobile app store is an illegal monopoly.

Epic declined to answer this on the record, among other questions we asked... but three things to consider: 1) That was a different case. Also, that one’s not over till the Supreme Court weighs in or declines to take a look. 2) Google can’t tell jurors that Apple won its case, or that other plaintiffs settled. The judge in this case says so! 3) Oh, and by the way, this is a jury trial.
