6月12日，据BBC报谈，英国讼师事务所 Milberg London LLP已向英国竞争上诉法庭拿起对V社的集体诉讼。该诉讼指控V社的Steam平台限度了PC电子游戏市集，并通过主导地位向1400万耗尽者收取额外用度，若此案栽培，V社将面对6.56亿英镑索赔。

拿起此案的代表、数字版权举止家Vicki Shotbolt在告状书中声称，V社免强在Steam上刊行游戏的厂商签署价钱平价条约，让其容许不会在其他平台上以更低的价钱出售游戏。该条约使得Steam在市集上摒除了多数竞争敌手，限度了耗尽者的遴荐。

Vicki Shotbolt还觉得，Steam向刊行商们收取的“高达30%”的抽佣径直导致了游戏价钱升高，这一额外用度最终亦然英国耗尽者被动承担的。

Vicki Shotbolt的不雅点是，Steam的这些条件至极于糜掷主导地位，V社如故违背了英国竞争法。

此外，Vicki Shotbolt的告状书还指出，V社的“耗尽者在Steam上购买游戏实质后，无法在其他平台上购买DLC等附加内容”这一销售计谋，属于系缚销售，也对健康的市集竞争不利。

Milberg London律所结伙东谈主、集体施济讼师协会 (CORLA)的财务主管 Natasha Pearman 暗示：“V社恒久以来一直摆布着 PC 游戏市集。竞争法旨在保护耗尽者并确保市集过去开动，当市集开动不过去且耗尽者受到挫伤时，这种集体诉讼为耗尽者提供了发声的契机，并让 Valve 等大公司承担包袱。咱们很兴奋能与 Vicki Shotbolt互助，为英国耗尽者寻求补偿。”

当今的数据披露，Steam的“竞品”，也等于Epic Games Store的抽佣为12%，但游戏售价并未比Steam有很大隔离。

这也不是V社第一次面对此类诉讼了体育游戏app平台，《玄色暗影》的斥地商Wolfire Games 就在 2021 年指控 Valve 欺诈 Steam 压制 PC 游戏市集的竞争，并从“险些每笔通过其商店的销售中抽取极高的佣金” ，不外该案遭到了驳回。
