Steam finally solved gaming’s trickiest genre name

On Monday, Valve announced that its PC storefront has been updated with new game tags after two years of remaining stagnant. 17 new game tags — essentially granular genre names — were added to Steam, and nearly twice as many tags were removed from the platform. These changes reflect a number of industry trends, both in terms of what’s popular and what’s fallen out of fashion. And at least one of the inclusions is likely to settle ongoing debates about a specific category of game.
