[QUOTE="Admin, post: 53732, member: 1"] Windows will soon let you download the Epic Games Store as an app as it announces a significant update that will allow third-party apps to be discoverable on the Microsoft Store. As detailed as part of a[URL='https://blogs.windows.com/windowsdeveloper/2021/09/28/microsoft-store-more-apps-more-open/'] wider blog post[/URL], the Windows team says that both Amazon and Epic Games will be bringing their apps to the Microsoft Store and that it is looking forward to welcoming further stores in the future. In a similar fashion to apps on the store, third-party storefronts will have a product detail page that allows their customers to check out user reviews and notable information about an app before installing it. Windows has said that the decision to bring in third-party storefront apps shows its "commitment to being an open store for an open platform".
