Steam (from Valve Corporation) is a digital distribution platform and community hub for PC gaming. It provides an online store to buy and download games and software, plus features like automatic updates, cloud saves, achievements, and in‑client social tools. Steam also hosts community services — forums, user reviews, the Workshop for mods and user‑generated content, an in‑game marketplace, broadcasting, and wishlist/points systems — and offers developer tools (Steamworks/Creator programs) to publish and monetize titles. Players and developers choose Steam for its large catalog, discovery tools, and integrated community and service ecosystem.
