Valve has released an exciting new look for their previous stats pages to ensure that we data geeks can keep track of the most popular, economically lucrative, and most popular PC game on Steam all on one page. The site is accessible to anyone and everyone today; you no longer need to go to an outdated site or other third-party alternatives.
It was announced through a blog earlier in the day. There’s a wealth of information on every game and their respective rankings, including recent shifts in position, the option to switch regions swiftly, and the capability to view the total revenue. Overall an extremely useful tool!
Suppose you’ve been looking around for a while and have attempted to find these kinds of data might have visited the previous Stats page or even websites such as Steam Spy and Steam Charts (yes, there were Steam Charts before the announcement, but it was not Steam Charts before this announcement. However, it isn’t very clear). It was feasible to understand specific information points through the web pages (some of which pulled data via data from the Steam API). That being said, having a new shiny place to collect the data from a reliable source will help make this process much easier.
This is positive for everyone transparency in this sector could be an excellent source for knowing how the PC game market is performing at any given moment. It’s also reasonable that Valve will eventually release an updated and more accessible resource. If you rely on third-party websites to access Steam-related information, it may be better to offer it to them more efficiently.
