Your supposed to sign a release form with epic before you publish your games that almost no indie studio does https://www.unrealengine.com/en-US/release

Also steam takes there cut too

Once you've begun collecting money for your product, you'll need to track gross revenue and pay a 5% royalty on that amount after $1 million USD in gross revenue is earned*. To report your earnings, complete and submit the royalty form on a quarterly basis.

Which means before steams cut they exceeded 1 million dollars which is ridiculous

Very simple math if if the numbers we saw spamming the past 2 days are accurate. Unique Player count * unit sale price = gross revenue.
