Dear Partner,
Developers can now join live Epic Games Store preset campaigns and plan ahead for future campaigns directly in the Discount Management Tool in the Developer Portal. Using the new “Apply Date” option, products that initially fail validation (for example, due to cooldown periods) can automatically adjust to the first eligible start date, making it easier to participate in back-to-back sales.
Developers can also re-submit preset campaign discounts after previously canceling them. Preset campaigns require a minimum of seven days of participation.
While developers can join live campaigns, official submission deadlines remain critical to be considered for additional marketing support. Discounts submitted after deadlines are still included in campaign sale pages when live, but may not qualify for extended marketing support.
