Steam tv: the valve platform to compete with twitch

Twitch has become a most popular platform worldwide. So Valve wants to take action on the matter, and they unexpectedly announce Steam TV. It is a platform where players will have the possibility to upload their games live. So that the operation of the same has already been clear, and also against those who seek to compete.

Steam TV: Valve's platform to compete with Twitch

It is announced before the start of the Dota 2 championship, which will start tomorrow, Monday, August 20. At the moment it will be dedicated to this event exclusively, although in a few weeks it should be extended.

It should not take long to become official, because users can enter with their Steam username and password. Although at the moment the functions available in it are limited. So they should be reaching all users shortly, but Valve has not given a date for this deployment yet. So we will have to pay attention to it.

At the moment it is not known if Steam TV can be crowned as a competitor for Twitch. This is clearly what Valve wants, but it's too soon to be able to determine if it's really going to happen. We will have to see the acceptance it has among users.

Without a doubt, the bet of presenting it before Dota 2 is something that will generate interest and attention towards this platform. It remains to be seen if users also see the potential of it, and we may have the first major competitor to Twitch.
