According to Android Authority, the game store Epic Games Store, a direct competitor of Google Play Store, is preparing to launch on the Android platform. This is considered an important move that promises to bring many benefits to both game developers and Android users.
Information about the plan to launch Epic Games Store on Android was revealed through a post on the store's official X (formerly Twitter). The post did not reveal a specific launch date, but confirmed that the store will apply "fair terms" to all developers.
The fair terms that Epic Games Store refers to is an attractive revenue sharing ratio, with the developer keeping 88% of content sales revenue and Epic Games only taking 12%. This is a more competitive revenue share than the Google Play Store, where Google is charging 15% for the first $1 million in developer revenue each year and 30% for revenue above this threshold.
Epic Games Store's adoption of a more preferential revenue sharing rate could attract more game developers to join the platform. This will give Android users more game options, while promoting competition in the mobile gaming market.
In addition, Epic Games Store is also known for regularly giving away blockbuster games for free. The launch of the Android store promises to give Android users the opportunity to own high-quality games at preferential prices.
The launch of Epic Games Store on Android is an important event for the mobile gaming market. This promises to bring many positive changes for both game developers and Android users.
