Valve might be rolling 30-day Steam game price tracking out to more countries, according to some code spotted in the storefront's backend.

    30 days isn’t a long enough window. I’ll keep using steamdb for this

      Integration into the platform sounds more useful.

        Will the platform give me the price of the other store who sell steam key ? Probably not IsThereAnyDeal does

            It don’t have to but saying that a platform giving only 1 price is more useful than a website giving all of them is kind of stupid

              The general public very likely does not check isthereanydeal before buying a game. So this will be more useful to a lot of people that aren’t you or me.
