The Epic First Run programme allows developers of any size to claim 100% of revenue if they agree to make their game exclusive on the Epic Games Store for six months.

After the six months are up, the game will revert to the standard Epic Games Store revenue split of 88% for the developer and 12% for Epic Games.

It's that upfront money they give that's the big thing for some of these devs I can't blame them for taking that upfront influx of development capital.

Still not buying it from Epic, I hate console exclusivity, including Nintendo, and I'm not going to support it on PC.
