Seems like buying games to remove them from your competitor is a scummier thing to do.

If they didn't have fortnite and unreal engine money propping them up it would have closed by now. Hasn't been profitable since it opened in 2018.

    If they didn’t have Fortnite they probably wouldn’t even have the money to dump into Unreal Engine to make it where it is today. They probably would ask Tencent for more money and Tencent would have bought the rest of the company. The game engine business is just not as profitable as Fortnite, just look at Unity.
