Amaya Inc. brand Full Tilt will be the first major online poker brand to launch on Steam, Valve Corporation’s digital gaming platform, following a month in their Greenlight process.
Full Tilt secured thousands of votes from the Steam community who had their say on whether the game be made available on the popular platform, a press statement reads.
“The opportunity to introduce our game to the millions of players who make up the Steam gaming community is really important to us,” commented Dominic Mansour, managing director for Full Tilt.
“We will be the first major online poker brand on the platform and the move underlines our strategic intentions to explore new avenues for our games.”
Steam’s greenlight process has proven to be an important learning process for Full Tilt, Mansour said, providing the company with added insight into the wider gaming community which will help further initiatives in the pipeline.
Full Tilt expects to go live on Steam before the end of 2015.
