How so? By offering them more profitability? Oh the horror someone chases financial improvement...


And not just a little bit.

Steam charges 30%

Epic 12% and they waive the 5% use of unreal engine fee if you use their store.

That's a pretty huge difference.

Netting an extra 23% per copy doesn’t help much if people won’t buy the game through that launcher.

You are missing a huge piece of that equation.

Lost sales.
