Microsoft will be matching Epic Games revenue cut, giving developers 88 per cent of sales net revenue. The company also aims for Premier PC experience with the future games like Halo Infinite.
Microsoft are making some big steps to improve the gaming experience on PC and make sure that PC players are no different than Xbox console owners. The company explained what exactly their plan for PC gaming is in the latest blog post on the Xbox website.
"If you were to walk the halls at Xbox today, I think you'd find that to us, the idea of the "player" has come to mean someone who plays many kinds of games on many different devices. PC gaming is part of this; "player first" has to apply for PC, as well, and to that end we’ve been making investments across the PC gaming ecosystem to ensure that PC is a key part of how people can play games."

Your multiplayer customization and progress will follow you across all platforms.
