Fortnite isn’t on Microsoft’s Xbox Cloud Gaming service because Epic won’t allow it
It’s all about competition in the PC gaming space.www.theverge.com
interesting this s sorted and date in a way that makes it seem like steam was the first with the 30% cutBut this has default rates for a lot:
I saw this on Era:

Fortnite’s cash cow is PlayStation, not iOS, court documents reveal
Console players bring in a lot of money for Fortnite.

Epic's logic as to why it's okay for consoles to charge 30%. (AKA most of our revenue comes from those platforms and we'd be in big trouble if we got kicked off).
It simply confirms mobile platforms were sacrificial lambs for Tim's crusade.I saw this on Era:

Lol we all know that's a straight up lie and Tim is salivating at the thought of the Epic Games Store on the Playstation, Xbox and Switch.
But can't do anything yet, because that's 90% of income.
Holy hell @ 70-90% of purchases being fraudulent (around May 11th 2019).

Him recognizing the value of a platform's marketing and efforts kind of put EGS in a bad light as well as the idea that every cut is equal, which he has been pushing since the beginning.

LOL Apple bring the heat to Timmy's front yard, 3000 jobs, gonna be hard for Timmy to maintain his Fortnite Skins sweatshop on North Carolina if Apple poach his "employees".
Apple is building a new campus in NC because of its growing tech industry so it is purely coincidence, but it is pretty funny that Epic bought a mall a few months ago and Tim got one upped by his mortal enemy. I bet he takes it extremely personally.
Hey, a new ad for KH. Gotta get them sale numbers up.
There's straight up ads on news in US? WTF.
I assume that advertising is much more free in US than it is in EU
Incredible, Epic and Disney must be desperate to advertise these games on the news.
Looking at the top sellers list on EGS, it didn't really help. I guess most fans are waiting for the Steam release.
No joke, there was just a local news story on the new Stouffers Mac and Cheese Lasagna flavor this week. I also caught the same local news reporting on the new Google Nest Hub sleep tracking function and how great it is.
Here in the states, it is way too common to have straight up ads as news stories, not even just ads cleverly disguised as news stories, which is still bad mind you.
Reporting on Amazon union busting?
Report on Jalapeño Cheeto Flavored Kraft Mac n’ Cheese (also a real news blip a few months ago on the local news)?
Nowhere at this moment, they will be uploaded in a few hours and most likely some of us will share them in here
Afaik, there are witnesses and sealed material every day, so it's phone only.
Youtube streams were only for pre-trial conferences. (Guess they can't easily switch youtube temporarily off?)

Dead Island 2 and Saints Row 5 apparently EGS exclusives Rumor
From the court case.

Looks like Epic revealed that Saints Row 5 and Dead Island 2 will be EGS exclusives during their court case today.

I have a hard time believing Dead Island2 will come out anywhere, let alone on EGS at this point
Yeah it's the same thing.
I got a feeling Dead Island 2 will eventually comes out though who knows what state it will be in. I don't think we're looking at a Team Fortress 2 situation but more of a Duke Nukem Forever situation.
If only there was a place they could put it on PC that would increase their visibility and revenue.
As I said a few days ago, it's very funny to me that not even people who play Fortnite want to use EGS
It's not surprising to be honest
Game played mostly by children who mostly play on consoles and unlike League of Legends its not a game that will run decently on toasters.
I sure as hell don't ill tell you that much.As I said a few days ago, it's very funny to me that not even people who play Fortnite want to use EGS

Fortnite made more than $9 billion in revenue in its first two years
That’s a lot of V-Bucks.
Fortnite made $9.2 billion in 2018 and 2019 while Unreal Engine only made $221 million in the same time frame. I guess that puts the rest the theory that Unreal Engine is Epic's real money maker.

Fortnite is planning skins for LeBron James and The Rock, documents show
Also a “Fortnite version of arcade basketball.”
It was as of June 2020 which is before Fortnite got booted from iOS so it might be lower at this point. It also shows EGS at 45 million MAU at that time period.

I hear itch.io is great for revenue splitting. And what a coincidence, it just launched on the EGS!
I'm sure some of those developers/publishers must be kicking themselves right now.
Hopefully every developer out there will take a look at these and ask for way more money from now on
