Epic Games

Epic Games is a prominent gaming platform company. In addition to having produced titles like Fortnite, Rocket League, and Fall Guys, Epic Games provides an end-to-end digital ecosystem for developers and creators to build, distribute, and operate video games through the Unreal Engine, Epic Games Store, and Epic Online Services. In many ways, Epic’s business model is analogous to Amazon’s consumer business and its cloud computing service, AWS. Not only does Epic develop games, but it also builds game engines, which serve as the core infrastructure powering large parts of the gaming and 3D graphics industry.
