Valve could start selling mods (again)

Steam to use South African Rand from November 10th

Rumours have surfaced that Valve may be open to selling user-created content on its Steam Workshop (again).

This follows a message displayed to Steam Workshop creators who wish to view their items in the store.

The message states You can subscribe to this item for free because you are the creator or listed as a contributor.”

Valve has also updated the Steam Translation Server, adding in new strings which relate to paid mods, including how profits are split and author controlled monetisation.

There was severe backlash early last year when Steam began offering paid Skyrim mods to the community.
