The store came to be as an "f you" to Apple, as evident from the email exchanges at the time. The 1984 trailer from Fortnite seemed to be in the same vein. I don't think that particular trailer was for the purpose of promoting the EGS, as there's not a single hint to the store in the video or its standard placement.
And I'm sure that's an argument they would use, too, but they're very open about their ambitions elsewhere, and taking down their competitors (other stores) helps theirs stand out when they're plainly out of ideas as to how to do so otherwise.
To be clear, I'm glad those other stores are being taken down a few pegs. Once again, this is helping everyone. But it's from such naked self interest.
