Bloomberg estimated Valve was worth about $8 billion last year.
Such an acquisition would be extremely profitable for Microsoft. Valve’s gaming platform Steam has long been one of the most profitable projects in the industry.
But the deal might not be all that attractive for Gabe Newell’s company, as it has operated successfully independently without interference from major investors in Redmond.
Information about a possible deal remains at the level of rumors and has not been confirmed by any official documents or leaks.
But the news quickly gained popularity and garnered almost 2 million views within a few hours.
