Valve under spotlight as EU Commission considers if regional Steam keys are anti-competitive | PCGamesN
'If the Commission rules against Valve, they will be found in breach of EU anti-trust (competition) laws. '
'Valve is among three companies to be investigated by the European Commission over the regional locking of videogame keys. '
'The Commission will investigate agreements made between Valve and five major PC games publishers: Bandai Namco, Capcom, Focus Home, Koch Media and ZeniMax. '
'The Commission will consider whether doing this prevents “consumers from enjoying cross-border choice” and being able to buy video games “at competitive prices”. '
'More specifically, we are looking into whether these companies are breaking EU competition rules by unfairly restricting retail prices, or by excluding customers from certain offers because of their nationality or location."'
