Today Epic Games have announced they will open their own rival to Steam and it will be called the Epic Games Store.
They say they will give developers 88% of the revenue their game generate, which is much higher than the 70% Steam currently does.
It will open with a mix of PC and Max titles and will eventually have title across more platforms over the next year. It will waiver royalties from games that use their own Unreal Engine.
