Free-to-play is a hot topic for PC games these days. With free-to-play games coming to Steam recently, the user base for these obscure-yet-fun PC games has never been bigger. However, Valve isn’t content with simply bringing you other people’s free-to-play games. It appears as if they want to bring you free-to-play games of their own. In a recent interview with French site Barre de vie, Valve’s own Doug Lombardi was asked, rather directly, whether or not Valve will be working on developing free-to-play titles now that they are offering said titles on the Steam platform. His response? “Yes.” That’s it. There’s no big cover-up, or withholding of information; Lombardi just flat-out said in plain English (or rather, plain French) that Valve is developing a new free-to-play game. Either that or it’s some kind of translation error.
Of course, this is all very much rumor—and very much French—so take it all with a grain of caviar. |
