Valve Faces £656 Million Lawsuit for Alleged Overcharging of UK Gamers

Digital rights campaigner Vicki Shotbolt accuses Valve of using Steam's market dominance to inflate prices and shut out competition.

The lawsuit claims Valve overcharged 14 million UK gamers by up to 30% due to excessive commissions.
Filed at the Competition Appeal Tribunal, the collective action seeks compensation for affected gamers.
Valve is accused of imposing price parity obligations, preventing cheaper sales on rival platforms.
The case is supported by Milberg London LLP, known for similar actions against other tech giants.
If successful, affected gamers could receive up to £44 each in compensation.
