Steam Scream V is on until Nov 2. Spooky games crowd the store this week, so the quieter weeks after it are worth a look.

Plans & billing

What happens to my games and rivals when my plan ends?

Nothing is deleted. Games and rivals above the Free limits are paused and come back as soon as you upgrade.

Nothing is lost. When a paid plan ends, your account moves to Free and keeps your games, rivals and history.

  • Rivals above the Free limit of 5 per game are paused, not deleted. The rivals you added yourself stay active first.
  • Games above the Free limit pause too.
  • Instant and Discord or Slack alerts quietly move into your weekly email briefing.
  • On Studio, your teammates go back to their own games until there is a seat for them again.

Upgrade again and everything wakes up right where you left it.

Tip: on a prepaid plan we email you before it ends, so you can extend it from the billing page in time.
