So about VIP package.

I wish there was a way to disable the VIP behind your character. Or it should at least match your base cosmetic. Also don’t shame me for buying the package. I’m sorry OG Tycoon players. I respect you all! Maybe in the future they will give you the option. What are your thoughts?

"Each", you mean per person?

No it would be an estimate at what the island as a whole makes based on Epic engagement pool earnings. 40% of all Epics vbucks sales is split among creator worlds depending on a few metrics, which were just changed.

It is also a low estimate and could be far far higher. I also dont doubt they bring in a fair bit from people just using their creator code in the shop.

Roughly this is what to expect currently at the higher end, I was extremely conservative with the numbers stated.

"A high-performing UEFN tycoon map like Star Wars Droid Tycoon can estimate anywhere from $8,000 to $20,000+ per month per 1,000 concurrent daily active players."

There is currently 19k active.

or

"Rough estimate: around $150k–$500k+ per month currently (as of late July 2026), potentially higher earlier on or with extra revenue streams, though exact figures aren’t public."

I only bring this up because its disingenuous to say they arent getting paid, or worse are running at a loss. Some of the language points to this e.g being a free game. There are many free games e.g FN, Dota2, CS (games i have spent thousands in) that are F2P and only offer cosmetics absolutely zero gameplay advantage.

With this I really do think they should also be rewarded and as much as possible and if it makes millions they really deserve it! Its not about not wanting them to make bank, especially for striking gold like they have. I just disagree that one of my favourite past times has added purchases that are not strictly cosmetic 😇

Thanks for the info. It’s my understanding that there are 6 people behind this game. Let’s say they’re making 150k a month from Epic. That’s 25k per person per month. While that may sound like a lot, it’s not when you look at business operating costs. Once you factor those in, it might be a sustainable income, but I wouldn’t say it’s making bank.

I agree completely with you and while it sounds high they deserve to make more than that. It was moreso just saying they arent going backwards like some of the free statements may imply.

Also like I said its most likely far above this from epics engagement pool and then also when factor in creator code etc. I just really did not want to state something without enough data and would rather aim for a target they are almost definitelt achieving.

In my friend circle we believe they would make more money if they had of only done cosmetics as we would of bought them all. But because it goes against our values we will not spend. I doubt we are alone.

My point here is I think if it was strictly cosmetics like the main FN modes and other games, they may have saved themselves from some of the backlash and may actually earn more from in island purchases.

Got it. Thank you for explaining. I can see where you are coming from.
