Steam is a paperboard manufacturer in the area of PC gaming. In fact, the
company's revenue in 2017 was estimated at $ 4.3 billion. The strength of
Steam remains its top 100.

Even though the numbers given by Sergey Galyonkin are not perfect, in 2017
they are setting great trends on Steam. The expert of Steam was looking for
an analysis of the numbers he could gain from the company, and that's hard!
In fact, Steam accounts for about 18% of the PC gaming marketplace.

Among the most significant numbers, we find 291 million accounts on the
market Steam platform that allowed the company to generate $ 4.3 billion in
revenue. That's 0.8 billion more than in 2016, which is a pretty impressive
boost. And this number does not include microtransactions …

However, this very good revenue hides a fragility: in fact, of the 21,406
games that can be found on Steam, most of the revenue generated by a handful
of titles, in this case the Top 100 most popular games on the platform.

A turnover generated by a big engine

And, paradoxically, if Steam wanted to stand out from the crowd The
competition, by actively supporting everything that relates to the
independent game, especially the big shifts, who draw their pin of the game,
with some games that stand out clearly.

So the first game that allowed Steam to make such a good turnover is
Counter-Strike: Global Offensive . In fact, it has sold 12.5 million copies
and generated $ 120 million.

The platform's second emblematic game is Playerunknow's Battlegrounds the hit
game last month, which generated $ 600 million in revenue. Steam is available
in China, the game is a success, so much so that it has been installed in
many local internet cafes.

簡單來說

Steam 在2017年有43億美元的收入，比2016年時增加了8億美元，而且這還是不含微交易
和DLC的。另一篇的估算認為如果算入DLC和微交易那至少應是50億美元。

但是在 Steam 目前的 21,406 套遊戲中，主要收來其實都來自少數的熱門遊戲，主要是
前百大熱門遊戲。

最主要的遊戲像是CSGO，賺了1.2億美元。而絕地求生在中國的熱售讓他賺了6億美元。
