are “free” games of the month (PS+, Xbox Live, Epic Game Store) actually free? Are the developers giving unlimited copies to the platform for them to hand out/are the developers making money?
In: Economics
The developers of the games are paid by the platform company. The details of that deal isn’t public knowledge as far as I’m aware. I think it’s likely they are paid a lump sum to make the game available for free for a limited time, but it’s also possible they are paid per download.
