The
Epic Games Store now offers preorders of Tom Clancy's Ghost Recon
Breakpoint, Ubisoft's just-announced
military shooter sequel. This reveals an increasing familiar scenario where the game
will be exclusive to Epic's store and Uplay.
PCGamesN
has a confirmation of this from Ubisoft, noting it isn't a huge surprise
following how Ubisoft
stopped selling
Anno 1800 and
The
Division 2 on Steam to make both games EGS exclusives. The standard edition
of Breakpoint is listed at $59.99 USD, so consumers are yet to see any trickle
down benefit from the discounted royalty structure that's behind such
exclusives.

I haven't read the thread yet. Has anyone compared Epic unfavorably to literal Nazis yet?
No. But you have. Congrats on invoking Godwin's Rule on a 2-page thread.
