Valve Pulls All Digital Homicide Games From Steam

Digital Homicide’s entire library has been taken down.

Digital Homicide is an indie game company best known for making The Slaughtering Grounds their lawsuit against internet critic Jim Sterling. They have since launched a second lawsuit, in which they plan to sue one hundred Steam users. Jamie Romine of Digital Homicide aims to claim 18 million dollars due to personal damages that these users has caused. Romine provided screenshots of the users accusing the company of scamming and harassment as evidence.

The company reached out to Valve for information on the Steam users so that the lawsuit could be properly filed. There has been no official word from Valve on this front, but they have not been idle. All of Digital Homicide’s games have been removed from Steam, and they are no longer identified as developers.

Valve has confirmed that this was not an accident and was intentional. Valve’s director of marketing clarified that the reasoning was for abuse of Steam users. Despite this, neither this lawsuit nor the lawsuit against Jim Sterling is officially over yet. Valve will still need to take a stand on whether they will provide user data to Digital Homicide. There is quite a ways to go with these events.
