Before anyone leaves an angry comment check if it was answered last time this was posted

  • No, she won't get any more or less money based on whether you get it for free or not
  • Just downvote and move on if you don't want to ever think about Harry Potter again

Would you happen to have a link to Epic actually confirming this? Not trying to argue or anything; I'm genuinely curious, and didn't see a source for the claim in the other post.

There's plenty of unsourced claims, I found a vague "since developers get a flat fee from Epic so that Epic can offer their game for free" from the Verge, and there are a few specific numbers from a lawsuit a few years ago. So I'm guessing Epic don't shout about the specific numbers themselves, but it seems to be relatively accepted as truth.
