- Epic Games Store paid-in £8.38 million for Control Exclusivity
- Epic Games Store £8.38 million Control Exclusivity
Epic Games are working on a lot for months now, and the most important one is signing up PC games so that they only appear on their store, and not Steam.
Perhaps, it’s never been clear exactly how much Epic Games budget for the deals, especially as the games they sign-up can range from small indie titles to major releases. However, games analyst Daniel Ahmad has spotted that the parent company of Control publisher 505 Games received a payment of €9.49 million (£8.38m) from Epic Games, and although the company’s financial results don’t say specifically what it’s for there doesn’t seem to be anything else it could be.
Furthermore...unlike most games, we do know roughly what the budget of Control was, with developer Remedy quoting a figure of between €20 to €30 million (£17.7m to £26.5m) only last month.
Although Control itself, despite generally positive reviews it seems to have underperformed, but by being an Epic Games Store exclusive it now, brings in hope and there is a better chance of making its money back.
