Epic is 0% up to $1 million and 12% after.

Microsoft store is 5% if it's through your website and 15% if it's through the app.

GoG is 30%

Google Play store is 30% after 1 million

Why lie?

    30% used to be the standard, all consoles took 30%, Apple and Google took 30%, and all the PC game storefronts did. Sweeney doesn't give a shit about saving anyone money but himself. He's been on a decade long crusade to avoid paying these fees and will say whatever he can to make them go away or get lower.
