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.

I've heard that a lot of games have been a loss due to releasing on Epic as an early exclusive, as the first few months are critical.

I noticed they seem to have pulled back in exclusives, I guess that's why.

Epic Exclusives do seem to have quieted down of late don't they.
