BREAKING: Steam Store will unify the currency to the dollar in multiple countries |
Steam's aspirations to restructure its store began about a year or so ago, from the user menu that received a radically huge upgrade to the adjustment in the policies of the store itself, but the latest thing that Valve will do during that period is unifying the currency to the dollar in more than 25 nation.
The change in the currency unit will affect the Middle Eastern countries on the store, which we will explain in the points below. The change will reach Argentina and Turkey, which are considered the cheapest in the world. Valve warned that the change will occur on the Steam store on November 20, and users will receive a notification as soon as the currency is unified to United Startes Dollar.
This is expected in countries such as Turkey and Argentina due to the continuous decrease in both currencies there. This fluctuation made developers confused about the pricing of their games in these countries, which led to the establishment of this unification, taking into account the prices of Middle Eastern countries & Other countries, of course. The biggest reason, of course, from our point of view, is that everyone is evading the prices of their countries to buy from Turkey and Argentina because of the noticeable difference, which will completely eliminate this idea.
List of countries that will unify the purchase currency to the dollar on Steam
- Bahrain
- Egypt
- Iraq

T aking into account the prices in these regions, Valve noted that there will be an increase in prices in some countries on the list, and the whole matter depends on the developers pricing for these countries. This matter may raise some concerns, so we advise you to buy the games that you wanted this month before unifying the currency to Dollar on November 20.
