Steam has updated its content guidelines to restrict adult-only content, complying with the standards set by payment processors and banks. This change has already resulted in the removal of several games from the store, as Valve states some titles violated these new rules. Developers of affected games are being notified directly, and app credits will be provided for any future distribution on the platform. The policy shift aligns with a broader crackdown by digital storefronts on content deemed as 'slop,' particularly games that infringe on popular titles and contain adult themes.
Valve has now provided that, 'Content that may violate the rules and standards set forth by Steam's payment processors and related card networks and banks, or internet network providers, in particular, certain kinds of adult-only content' should not be published on Steam.
