Doesn't need to be profitable, when they're just rolling around in Fortnite money wondering what to spend it on.

Whether its games stores or streaming services, the media seems to constantly miss the obvious, lack of accounted profits means no tax to pay.....

I had epic game store before they started blasting free games for unreal tournament. That was a fun alpha and was excited to see what it was going to evolve into. Guess not now lol

And it'll never be.

Only way epic can compete, even with bloody ubisoft launcher, is to remove competition. Improving their store just isnt part of their business plan, if it was they would do it.
