Every exclusive game available in the Epic Games Store

The Epic Games Store has managed to become a real threat to Steam in just a matter of months. Launched in 2018, the store from the studio behind money-printer Fortnite has enticed developers both large and small with far friendlier revenue splits than Steam. Now, there are a lot of exclusive games on the Epic Games Store.

Although many titles have made their way over to Steam — including Metro Exodus and Borderlands 3 — Epic has a strong lineup of exclusive titles. In addition to AAA blockbusters from publishers like Ubisoft, Epic manages to grab the attention of a lot of indie outfits.

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 of Control) 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.

You might want to wait a bit to play Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 on Steam
A player runs in Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 multiplayer.

It's Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 launch day, which means potentially millions of players are hopping into the new single-player campaign, the updated multiplayer mode, and Zombies. While posts online about the performance of the game seem to be minimal, there have been reported issues on PC, specifically via Steam.

It's been a common story lately about players being mad at third-party launchers on Steam, and that remains the case for Black Ops 6. Call of Duty's is called Call of Duty HQ (COD HQ), and it's a hub for players to manage their game installs, whether they want to only download certain game modes or launch a specific game. It seems as if players can only switch between modes through the launcher and have to go through multiple menus to boot the game up. In the worst cases, they can't launch the game at all.
