that is valve's policy on the revenue sharing - https://steamcommunity.com/groups/steamworks#announcements/detail/1697191267930157838
Well deserved! CDPROJEKT RED's games are something else... You can always see the passion behind them.
I can't wait to play Cyberpunk 2077, one of my most anticipated games this year.

Thank you, looked that over.
They are probably in the 75 percent tier already, likely to be 80 at launch.
I've just started replaying the Witcher 3 and rediscovering what an incredible game it is. Never played the expansions. Guess I'll pick them up on the next Steam sale.
Looking forward to Cyberpunk.

If they're that successful on your service, they will remain anyway.
And you think that will stop Epic or others from buying exclusivity?
If Sony comes next gen with a jewel encrusted crown for an exclusive on ps5 they will refuse because of that?
Ubisoft was one of the most successful publishers on Steam and they stopped releasing their games on Steam.

no that's long term rational thinking that many suits don't have in the 21st century
And look what happened to their recent releases (In addition to their quality/content issues)
They are still not back no matter what. The Division 2 exclusivity ended and nothing.
March 12, but yeah, I don't expect Ubisoft this year, only if everything they release bomb hard.
Yeah, but the Netflix show hit last december and spiked interest by a LOT
The Division 2 entry on SteamDB wasn't updated since they removed it so...
That's kind of because Ubi is big enough to be able to support their own platform.
They probably would have done it regardless of a meager 10% more they get out of Steam.
Yeah companies do exclusive deals because they lack funds, good one.
Hey someone has to.
Siege is in top 5 games on Steam by concurrent players for years now. People have choice and still pick Steam. Their games are sold as UPlay keys everywhere (not anymore, tnx Epic) and people still picked Steam. Going off Steam will impact them, how much we will never know.
No, the new rev share model started in october 2018, took 15 months for TW3 to reach 20/80, we don't know how long took they to reach 25/75 tho'
Witcher 3 has been on a higher-than-base revenue share for some time now. As a result, CDPR gets a higher percentage of revenue per sale on Steam than anywhere else the game is sold digitally besides CDPR's own platform.
That's a shit ton of money, wow.
Say that to Bethesda lol
*14% more, to be pedantic
It only counted since October 2018. CDPR made 50 Million bucks with a 4 year old game on Steam in the last 15 months.
EGS only made 125 Million in 12 months storewide. THATS why the store cut doesn't matter overall.
Only because of the multi-game deal with Epic, though. Since signing said deal, Ubi has actually released three-and-a-half games on Steam (the "half" being Anno 1800). The whole "70% is unrealistic!" spiel was nothing more than PR chest-beating, not an indictment against Steam as a platform Ubi considers relevant.
Yeah but it looks like that they are not returning. The Division 2 depot wasn't touched since removal and exclusivity for that game will end soon and still no announcement about Steam release. And Ubisoft removed all of their new games from other stores. So i think that they will still stick with Epic Store/UPlay co exclusivity.
