Wolfire Games, the studio behind games like Overgrowth, Receiver and the original creator of the Humble Bundle, has filed an antitrust lawsuit against Valve. The studio alleges that Valve abuses its dominance in the PC gaming market and suppresses competition.
The lawsuit was filed on Tuesday this week in the Western District of Washington. In the filing, Wolfire Games says that 75 percent of PC games are sold through Valve’s Steam store and Valve takes a 30 percent revenue cut from those sales, leading to more than $6 billion in annual revenue for Valve, according to estimates. The case argues that Valve is only able to take this 30 percent cut because “it actively suppresses competition to protect its market dominance”.
