Was This Game Just On Sale? Steam May Show Price Shifts Over the Past 30 Days
A price tracker would make it easy to tell if you’re getting a good deal on a game or not.
Steam is the largest video game platform with more than 129,000 games and counting. With so many games and the company offering frequent sales, it’s hard to keep track of whether a game has is at its lowest price or if its been discounted further in the past, but that may change.
Lines of code found in the Steam platform seemingly refer to the recent price history for a game, according to a post on Wednesday from the X account for the Half-Life fan site Lambda Generation. The code was discovered by data miner SigaTbh, who found it on SteamDB, a database and tracking site for the gaming platform. While price history is already a feature on Steam in the European Union, this update could be the first sign that it will become the norm for the platform over in the U.S.
In the image posted by Lambda Generation, there are six lines of code referencing «Price_History» and each line reflects a certain detail that could show up on a game’s page to give some context about its price. The price history would show the normal price for the game, the current price, whether the current price is a 30-day low or if the game was at a lower cost sometime within the past 30 days.
Valve is planning to add a 30 day price history for Steam games.

Valve didn’t immediately respond to a request for confirmation about the new feature.
Back in 2023, Valve added the price history feature to Steam in the EU as part of the Omnibus Directive. The directive is a series of rules set by the EU focusing on consumer protection. Companies with digital storefronts were required to institute a price tracker on their platforms to display the lowest price of an item for the past 30 days. Even though the Omnibus Directive is in full effect, however, it’s not available in every member state of the EU, as individual countries have to adopt the directive.
Certain rules in the EU that require certain changes to be made to a product or service eventually find their way to the U.S. Apple was forced to add USB-C to its iPhone 15 lineup due to EU legislation requiring standardization of charging ports.
It’s unclear why Valve would make the move to add a price tracker to Steam in the U.S. The company is reportedly working on an AI bot for the platform dubbed «SteamGPT,» and the price history could be part of its features.

Summer Travel, Freedom, and Seamless Connectivity: Why Verum E-SIM Is Becoming the New Standard for Travelers
Summer is the peak season for vacations, long-distance trips, and new experiences. Millions of people travel abroad, explore new countries, plan adventures, and try to stay connected with family, work, and social media. And in the middle of all this comes a familiar question: how do you stay online without expensive roaming or the hassle of buying local SIM cards?
The answer is already here — eSIM.
Why eSIM Is So Convenient
