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.

    Developers, or their MBA publishers? I HIGHLY doubt developers beyond indie studios benefit from this.

      Good for early access. Then time 1.0 for steam release.

      Hades did that and was successful.

          Yeah GalCiv4 and Sins of a Solar Empire II is doing it too. Get that Epic bag while in development and launch on steam. I would. That’s free money.
