crispy4000 Posted March 20, 2019 Share Posted March 20, 2019 Just announced via Epic's GDC stream. I'll still be buying Steam keys when possible, but I think it's likely we'll be seeing Epic keys in bundles there soon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

crispy4000 Posted March 20, 2019 Author Share Posted March 20, 2019 This thread is even more relevant now. I don't think Steam will go away as the norm, at least not anytime soon. But Epic's going to want to see their keys in bundles. EA and Ubisoft similarly benefited from their Humble partnerships. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crispy4000 Posted March 20, 2019 Author Share Posted March 20, 2019 Quote Epic Games is gearing up to partner with Humble Bundle in an effort to allow developers to sell their games via the Epic Games Store on the Humble Bundle Store. This new change will allow Epic Games Store game developers to sell Epic store exclusives as well. Epic Games all receive no revenue share from the games purchased through the Humble Store, The partnership will kick off with keys that can be redeemed on the Epic Games Store, and Epic will allow players to go ahead and link their Epic and Humble accounts so that buyers can complete direct purchases. https://www.shacknews.com/article/110641/epic-partners-with-humble-bundle-for-epic-games-store-titles Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Commissar SFLUFAN Posted March 20, 2019 Share Posted March 20, 2019 Quote The partnership will enable developers to decide whether they want to sell their Epic Games Store titles on the Humble Store. Epic won’t receive any revenue share from the sales of those games purchased through Humble Store, the company said. That's parity with Steam in that regard.
