Developers can reuse their existing toolchain when bringing Android games to Steam, but will need to integrate Steamworks features. Valve's broader Arm ambitions include paving the way for SteamOS to be more broadly supported across Arm devices.

The proposed changes address Android app distribution and in-app payment services. Qualified third-party app stores will have a streamlined installation flow, and developers will be able to offer alternative in-app payment methods. Google will retain oversight mechanisms and charge reasonable fees for the review process. The new rules specify maximum fees that Google can charge for alternative transactions. This settlement provides developers with a clearer and longer-term roadmap for the Android platform.
