Steam Updates Platform to Clarify Digital Game Purchases Ahead of California's AB 2426

Steam has updated its platform to inform users that they are purchasing a license rather than owning the digital games they buy. This change comes ahead of California's new Digital Goods Law, AB 2426, which aims to protect consumers from misleading sales of digital goods.

This move by Steam aligns with the new legal requirements and ensures transparency in digital transactions.
