Hello everyone.
We hope that you enjoyed Christmas and you're happy with whatever you found under the Christmas tree :)
We don't want to ruin the festive mood but we wanted to inform you that there are price changes coming that will affect customers in certain countries. These will take effect after our Steam winter sale ends on 4th January.
A few months ago Valve (Steam) changed their recommended regional pricing model related to the base price in dollars. This reflects changes in exchange rates over the last few years.
It is not a sudden decision by Valve but one that has been on the cards for some time now.
To be perfectly clear, we have not changed the original price (nominated in US dollars)!
The changes will only affect currencies where the price is derived from the dollar exchange rate. Listed in descending order below are the currencies with the highest price increase (the difference between the original and new price).
- Argentine Peso
- Turkish Lira
- Russian Rubles
- Ukrainian Hryvnia
- Hong Kong Dollar
- Brazilian Reals
- Norwegian Krone
- Polish zloty
- New Zealand Dollar
- Taiwanese Dollar
- Japanese Yen
- Chinese Yuan
- Swiss Francs
Please note, currencies with less than a 10% increase or where less than 0.5% of units were sold (e.g. Kazakhstani Tenge) are not listed.
Once again, this is not something Kube Games have initiated, it follows the new Valve regional pricing recommendations. We are aware that this is not an ideal announcement for the end of the year, but we wanted to give you a heads up in advance. The Steam sale seems like a good opportunity for those who are waiting for a good deal as this is the highest discount on Imperiums games so far.
We wish you all the best in the new year and are looking forward to meeting you again in 2023. Many interesting things are still waiting for all of us in the Imperiums realm, so stay with us!
Yours,
Kube Games team.
