ByteDance is creating a new gaming platform that will operate globally, aiming to compete with Steam. The platform, called “GameTop,” is being built in a way that resembles the popular PC game store, Steam.
The company plans to strengthen its position in the international gaming market. ByteDance hopes that “GameTop” will become a gaming hub for users worldwide and provide game developers from different regions with direct access.
Detailed information about how the platform will operate has not yet been released. There is no official information regarding which games will be offered, the payment systems, or market priorities.
Competition in the gaming industry is steadily increasing, and the emergence of new alternatives to giants like Steam means additional opportunities for game developers. Considering ByteDance’s popular applications such as TikTok, CapCut, and Moonton, which have millions of users, the impact of “GameTop” on the gaming sector is highly anticipated.
