There's absolutely no way this is true.
- Kranar 4y agoJust checked and it's close. Steam is estimated to have made 7 billion in revenue in 2021 and Fortnite alone made 6 billion in revenue in 2021.
- junon 4y agoI don't know how this could remotely be estimated given both the steam store and marketplace, the various contract tiers based on prior agreements, grandfathered contracts, etc.
- KaoruAoiShiho 4y agoIt's estimated by SteamSpy and such: https://www.vg247.com/steam-4-3-bilion-revenue-2017 https://www.vg247.com/steam-4-3-bilion-revenue-2017 Of Valve's 8~ billion revenue they gross only 15-30% of that while Epic has far higher margins on their ~6 billion revenue.
- Kranar 4y agoIt's estimated due to the fact that vast majority of that 7 billion dollar revenue comes from just a small handful of games. Looking over VG Insights, almost half of all video game revenue comes from just 50 games (out of approximately 10,000 games released on Steam per year).
- ekianjo 4y agoEstimated based on whose ass?
- KaoruAoiShiho 4y agoOh it is. Either Valve is severely undervaluing their company at less than 10 billion dollars while Epic is worth 20-30 billion... or it's true.
