description: Epic Games is the studio behind Fortnite, the Unreal Engine, the Epic Games Store, MetaHuman, RealityScan, Twinmotion,
  RAD Game Tools, and the Epic Online Services (EOS) backend. Epic operates a unified developer portal at dev.epicgames.com
  that hosts the EOS SDK and REST APIs (Auth, Connect, Friends, Presence, Lobby, Sessions, Achievements, Stats, Leaderboards,
  Player Data Storage, Title Storage, Voice, Sanctions, Anti-Cheat, Reports, P2P, Ecom, User Info), the Unreal Engine documentation,
  the Epic Games Store publishing tools, and the Kids Web Services (KWS) compliance platform. EOS is cross-platform and runs
  on Windows, macOS, Linux, PlayStation, Xbox, Switch, iOS, Android, and web. This profile rolls Epic's developer-facing surfaces
  into a single index; the Unreal Engine surface has its own dedicated profile.

  name: Epic Online Services (EOS)
  description: Epic Online Services is Epic's free cross-platform backend for games. EOS exposes both a native C/C++ SDK (with
    Unity, Unreal, and platform wrappers) and a set of REST web services covering identity (Epic Account Services, Connect,
    Auth), social (Friends, Presence, Blocklist), play (Lobby, Sessions, P2P, Voice), progression (Achievements, Stats, Leaderboards),
    storage (Player Data Storage, Title Storage), integrity (Anti-Cheat, Sanctions, Reports), and commerce (Ecom). All EOS
    APIs are gated behind an Epic developer organization, sandbox, and client credentials issued in the EOS Developer Portal.

    Tool for uploading builds and a developer portal for managing products. There is no fully self-serve public REST Store
    API; publishing is gated through Epic's onboarding.
