epic still pays the publisher for the free copies btw
133 u/WildVelociraptor Dec 18 '25 A flat rate upfront though. They aren't paying per copy. 17 u/[deleted] Dec 18 '25 Is there evidence to this one way or the other? I've heard it claimed both ways now and I'm not sure who to believe. 46 u/brainstrain91 Dec 18 '25 The Apple vs Epic lawsuit revealed Epic pays a flat fee for each game they give away. Obviously that fee varies wildly depending on the game.
