Valve expands Workshop Compensation program

Creators who earn money can now share the income with contributors

Posted on

Valve, creators of Steam digital platform, have announced updates to the Workshop Compensation which launched a few weeks ago.

Since launch, over 1,200 items created by members of the community have been made available for sale in Team Fortress 2 and Dota 2, producing over $10 million in royalties paid to item creators. Starting today, item creators in Team Fortress 2 and Dota 2 Workshops may choose from a selection of toolmakers, communities, and mentors and allocate a percentage of revenues from in-game item sales to the those who aided in the items' creation.

The contribution will be made from a set percentage that is redirected from Valve to the toolmakers, not taken from the item creator's royalty.

The Steam Workshop is a central hub of player-created content and tools to publish, organize, and download that content.
