the games made them a great ROI. so they are moving to the epic store. however, f2p titles now dominates the mobile marketplace, so it's probably for the best. still, it's shitty if you purchased the games. 

Are they any good?

they are good grindfests for mobile, but they are pretty dated. however, they did a great job showcasing the potential of touchscreen controls and mobile visual tech.  great time killers in small bursts.

the second game was the best imo. i liked all of the multiple paths and unlockables. 

Cool.  Epic released a statement, and yea, it appears they simply didn't want to keep supporting the games on mobile.  Apparently mobile OS updates would break the games causing them to have to go back and fix them.  It wasn't worth the hassle anymore I guess, now that they got that Fortnite money.

Right at the end of the statement, they say "As we bid farewell, be sure to keep your eyes peeled! You may find Infinity Blade popping up in places you wouldn’t expect."  So yea, that pretty much means that either these games are coming to the Epic store, or they are making a new Infinity Blade aimed more at the PC/Console space.

hmmm....i can see them on the switch, because of the "mobile" aspect. they are really meant for bite sized gaming. they get very grindy. hopefully, epic makes the sequel they intended on making, where it's a full fledge action-adventure title.

Not too surprising and yeah that statement definitely hints at Switch imo. Epic Game Store is not a place we wouldn't expect. 

Eh.. that's like saying Switch is a place we WOULD expect because it's more like a mobile device.. :shrug: 

 

Could be either or.. or both. :]
