How Much Does Steam Take From Sales?
Steam typically takes a 30% cut from sales on its platform. This has been a fairly standard rate in the digital distribution space, though there are exceptions for games that hit certain revenue thresholds. For example, when a game makes over $10 million, Steam's cut drops to 25%, and then again to 20% for earnings over $50 million.

Honestly, the 30% cut Steam takes feels high, but considering the massive audience and the features they provide devs, it kinda makes sense.
Steam's 30% might sound like a lot, but it's pretty standard for the industry. Plus, the more you sell, the less they take. Fair trade if you ask me.
