Epic Games, which started to win the hearts of gamers with its reasonable prices after Steam switched to the dollar exchange rate, sent an e-mail to some developers signaling a raise in the past hours. It is wondered how this development, which created a great shock for many players, will affect the Turkish gaming industry in the coming period if it becomes official. Here are the most important details about the subject…
Epic Games users are worried about price hikes!
Some players agree with Epic Games’ decision, considering factors such as inflation. The email sent shows that even if the developers do not want to raise the price, the price of the games may increase if there is a noticeable fluctuation in the exchange rates.
The first paragraph of the e-mail, which stirred up game fans after it was heard, is as follows:
“Epic Games Store reaches a wide audience with its users all over the world. To ensure that products are priced fairly and consistently across different regions, we provide our partners with recommended regional price classes specific to their product offerings. “We are currently updating these regional price classes to best reflect current rules and exchange rates.”
It has been seen that game enthusiasts, who have already been worried about a big price increase due to the fluctuation in foreign exchange rates recently, are in a great hurry to get the games they need with this news. While it is predicted that many developers will have to give raises, even if unwillingly, this situation is expected to inevitably reduce Epic Games’ game sales. We hope that this unfortunate development will be beneficial for the gaming industry in Turkey at the end of the day.
Epic Games Store has announced the free games it will offer this week. Until April 25, you can add these two games to your library.
