Now, there are a lot of exclusive games on the Epic Games Store.

Epic Games Store exclusives
Epic started with a slow trickle of AAA exclusives, but the lineup was bolstered throughout 2019. In addition to multiple Ubisoft games, Epic has snatched up many games exclusive to other platforms, includingGodfallon the PlayStation 5 andGrindstonefrom Apple Arcade.
Upcoming exclusives
The list of Epic Games Store exclusives doesn’t look impressive throughout 2021, but there are some heavy hitters coming down the pike.
Although we don’t have as many games lined up for the Epic Games Store as in previous years, there’s a lot for fans to look forward to. Ubisoft is continuing to support the platform, which means we’ll likely see upcoming releases in the publisher’s popular franchises released on the platform. Additionally, Remedy Entertainment (developer ofControl) announced that its next two games would be exclusive to the platform, and Playdead and GenDesign have exclusives coming, as well.
We’ll likely see a continued tread of PS5 games on Epic, too. Although Sony doesn’t publish games exclusively on Epic, many PS5 console exclusives have already shown up on Epic over Steam.
