They don't even need to do that. If they are large enough where it would become millions there is a different license for them that they can negotiate with Epic.

Note: it doesn't have a royalty

Just guesswork here, but I think they have an agreement that is cheaper and also includes CDPR engine developers contributing code back to UE that makes it better to use for open-world games.

In the UE5 Keynote it seemed more like a technical partnership than just CDPR licensing UE5 for a price.
