Epic Games Store is live.

[Rincewiend]

The Epic Games store is now open, featuring awesome high-quality games from other developers. Our goal is to bring you great games, and to give game developers a better deal: they receive 88% of the money you spend, versus only 70% elsewhere. This helps developers succeed and make more of the games you love.

The store will also feature one free game every two weeks throughout 2019. Epic is funding these free releases so you always have something new to come and check out. The first free game will be Subnautica, available from Dec 14th to Dec 27th, followed by Super Meat Boy from Dec 28th to Jan 10th.

If this starts to take a lot of business away from Steam then maybe it will finally get Valve to get back to actually making games.

^I'd settle for Valve actually bothering to curate their own store.

That would be welcome as well. I kind of wish Epic would make their store only available to games made in the Unreal engine as there seem to be fewer Unreal asset flip games than Unity ones.
