Quote:Valve is a private company, so its net worth isn't public knowledge. Back in 2012 it was reportedly around the $3 billion mark, though the continued success of Steam will have seen this number sky rocket. Gabe Newell, the company's founder, now has a net worth of $5.5 billion according to Forbes.
