Steam Tightens Rules on Game Season Passes
A Standard list, updated about 17 hours ago.
Valve's Steam platform is implementing stricter regulations for season pass sales, requiring detailed content descriptions and specific release windows for downloadable content (DLC), according to SteamDB creator Pavel Djundik. The company will restrict season pass offerings to established partners with proven track records and may issue refunds if developers miss deadlines or deliver unsatisfactory content. Developers must outline DLC components and commit to three-month launch windows, with one possible delay allowed. "If you aren't ready to clearly communicate about the content included in each DLC AND when each DLC will be ready for launch, you shouldn't offer a Season Pass on Steam," Valve stated. . . .
