When Epic Games announced last month that it would be launching its own digital game storefront to compete with Steam, it caused quite a stir. Steam has spent over a decade and a half establishing itself as the premiere platform for buying PC games online, but if any company was going to be able to take on Valve’s juggernaut, it made sense that it would be the team behind another seemingly unstoppable video game juggernaut: Fortnite.
And thus the Epic Games store was born, but save for one notable exclusive, it seemed as though Epic would have a long and treacherous road to hoe to establish itself. Then a bombshell dropped. On Wednesday, Epic announced that it would be partnering with Ubisoft to bring The Division 2 to the Epic Games store on PC.
