Epic Games: Revenue Share Update and New Webshops
Revenue Share Update
Epic Games will introduce a new revenue share model: developers will keep 100% of the revenue on the first $1 million earned annually per app through the Epic Games Store. After this threshold, the standard 88/12 revenue split will apply—88% to developers and 12% to Epic.
New Webshops on the Epic Games Store
Starting in June 2025, developers will be able to create “webshops” hosted on the Epic Games Store. These online shops will allow players to make purchases outside of the apps, offering a more cost-effective alternative to traditional in-app purchases. This initiative aims to reduce the high fees imposed by platforms like Apple and Google. Additionally, players who make purchases through the new webshops will earn 5% of the amount spent in the form of “Epic Rewards.”
