Now, third-party games can offer premium in-game items and effects, with developers pocketing 37% of the proceeds — temporarily doubled to 74% for 12 months.

Epic, the company that has been fighting Apple over app store commissions, intends to leave developers who create games inside Fortnite with just 37% of the money they bring in.

This bit from the IGN report linked in the article highlights the bullshit of microtransaction pricing:

Steal the Brainrot’s 4,900 V-Buck “Present Rot” bundle has also come under fire — not only for its price, but for it being advertised as a limited-time discount on its usual 5,400 V-Buck cost. One of the constraints Epic Games has placed on third-party microtransactions is a 5,000 V-Buck upper limit for any individual item — meaning this item’s saving is discounted from a price that couldn’t actually be sold.
