Steam Expands Community, Adds ‘Game Hubs’

Steam has announced a major update to the Steam Community. Every game on Steam will now have its own Game Hub, highlighting user-created screenshots, videos and Steam Workshop items as well as the latest news, discussions and comments. The information will be available in one central location, and content shown will be based on ratings from the community.

The news comes as part of a four-day reveal leading up to the new Steam Community and includes some new statistics about the content that's been uploaded by users. According to Valve, more than 80 million screenshots have been uploaded since Steam Screenshots launched in February 2011, as well as nearly one million videos shared by linking Steam accounts with YouTube. Over 200,000 Steam Workshop items have also been created.

"The New Steam Community is all about showing off the best content that gamers have created," said Valve's Emily Kent. "With over 89 million screenshots, videos, Steam Workshop maps, levels, mods, and items, plus news articles and product updates, the community has created an unbelievable wealth of content around their favorite games."

This is one of many recent changes to Steam, following the introduction of Steam Greenlight and Steam’s expansion into non-game software. More details about the Community will be revealed in the coming days, so keep checking back for all the latest updates, as well as when you’ll be able to jump into the closed beta.
