Large Companies like Epic don't by smaller companies like Bandcamp because they want the revenue stream that comes in from Bandcamp. They want the technology, engineers (acqi-hiring), data, or to kill possible competition. Keeping Bandcamp operating would take away from their main reasons from buying them. My personal guess is they want the technology + engineers for some new feature set they want. They won't want any bad press + they need time for planning/organizing before actually doing anything.
This is my guess of what will happen...
