Sounds hard to believe but Epic Games is more than just Fortnite. This company has had important contributions in the development of video games, particularly with its graphics engine Unreal. Now that it is fashionable to buy studies and others, Epic did not want to be left behind and on this occasion they acquired bandcampan online music store.
The news was confirmed by a publication on the official website of Epicwhere the company mentions that bandcamp will play an important role in the vision of Epic to build creators’ marketplace in an ecosystem full of content, technology, games, art, music and more. For its part, bandcamp He mentioned that they will also help them with mobile app development and marketing tools. Interestingly, bandcamp will continue to operate business as usual in the near future, so members and users of this online platform have nothing to worry about.
It is worth remembering that last year Epic also bought from harmonixthe developers of rockband, so they certainly are up to something on the subject of music. At the moment it is not clear what the plans are Epic in the long term, but all these acquisitions have a reason and it will be interesting to find out what their objective was all this time.
Publisher’s note: Actually the only thing that worries me about all this is that Epic wants to start trading with NFTs. The subject is very hot right now, but the reality is that these digital goods are not very well seen in gaming, so let’s hope that the creators of Fortnite and Unreal do not want to get into it too.
