Sounds like a purposeful leak to test the waters, and get the bidding war started. I wouldn’t be surprised if Valve execs are simply looking to capitalise for investors.

$16B is far too cheap for a company like them though. They almost pull that in revenue in a single year without locking out third party marketplaces. Their margins are notoriously high.

I’d triple it.



I would say Valve pulls in 70 to 80 billion a year in sales and technology.
