Whatever happens to the Epic Malware store they have coming. Selling out to the CCP and trying to implement exclusivity schemes should be punished and not rewarded, IMO.
Part of the CCP domestic brainwashing is a bunch of pseudospiritual self-help mumbo jumbo that basically boils down to "making Xinnie money is good for your soul".

Quick, hide the copium and hopium stashes!!!
China still wants to control and damage their adversaries. Doubt they'd give it up.
For a country that doesn't like "spiritual opium," they certainly ship a lot of fentanyl to the west.
If you really think Epic is better than EA or Sony you're far more deluded than I previously thought.
Fortnite wrote the fucking curriculum on how to be a huge scam to get kids to steal their parents credit cards and just give them money.
