Unity used to take a royalty if you earned over a certain amount, I think it was 100k USD/yr. I couldn't tell you the exact percentage, but I seem to recall it was significant, similar to your platform fees which on Steam is like 30%

They discontinued that years ago though. Now it's free if you're under the $100k threshold, but once you go over you have to upgrade your license at a cost of a couple grand per seat per year.

The per-install fee is taking effect Jan 1, 2024, but I believe you're still going to have to get an upgraded license after you hit the threshold. This is a fee on top of fees.
