Exactly. Epic have their own store for games. Would they be fine with each AAA game releasing on the store for “free” but required a credit card to be entered once it was run, with 100% of the money going to the publisher?
- mdoms 4y agoYes, the Epic store enables this exact scenario. Lots of free games on Epic make all of their month through micro transactions billed entirely through their own systems. See Rocket League for one example, but there are many.
- SXX 4y agoI really unsure about EGS monetization model, but Psyonix (developer of Rocket League) are subsidiary of Epic. UPD: At least while ago in 2019 Epic claimed to give a choice of payment processor to use for games on their store: https://www.gamesindustry.biz/articles/2019-12-06-epic-games-store-implements-in-game-purchases-for-third-parties https://www.gamesindustry.biz/articles/2019-12-06-epic-games...
- mdoms 4y agoAs I said there are lots of free games on Epic which use their own store fronts for transactions.
