    Will it be steam based?

    Will it be steam based?

    Which companies? If you're referring to Ubisoft, EA, Activision, etc then nothing of value was lost. The vast majority of PC sales are through online downloads, which aren't usually taken into account in sales compared to console games. PC video game revenue is still increasing.
