WeGame is the primary gaming platform developed by the Chinese technology company Tencent. It serves as Tencent’s flagship game portal, offering a wide range of games, digital distribution services, and community features for players.
WeGame is an upgraded version of TGP (Tencent Games Platform) that has more than 200 million active users (compared to Steam's 125 million) and over 4.5 billion downloads, and is widely considered as a direct competitor to Steam.
The gaming platform will support both Chinese and global users through separate storefront and is due to go online on 1 September 2017. Tencent has stated that the platform will focus on PC and standalone games and will no longer host web or mobile games, and will provide support to small and indie companies.
Tencent launches Steam Link-like mobile streaming app for Android and iOS that lets users stream their desktop games from the PC storefront WeGame to a mobile device over wi-fi .
In February 2020, WeGame had an estimated 70 million monthly active users.
