Epic Games updated its Terms of Service document metadata, changing the last updated date from May 27, 2026 to September 10, 2026, and the effective date from November 28, 2025 to September 10, 2026. The updated terms now explicitly require users to comply with applicable third-party terms of agreement, such as wireless data service agreements with their carrier, when using Epic's products or services. This addition establishes a new obligation for users to adhere to external agreements beyond Epic's own terms.

1 new obligation

Consumers: When you use Epic's services, you must also follow the rules set by your internet or phone carrier and any other third-party service providers you use.

What this means for you

Generated by a model from the captured document; not read by a person

The updated terms now explicitly state that users must comply with applicable third-party terms of agreement, such as wireless data service agreements with their carrier, when using Epic's products or services. This clarifies that Epic's terms do not supersede or replace obligations users may have under separate agreements with third parties. The practical effect is that users remain bound by their existing carrier, ISP, or other service provider agreements in addition to Epic's own terms.
