Leaked data reveals Valve has only 336 employees, significantly fewer than other major game developers and publishers. CD Projekt Red, for instance, has over 400 people working on The Witcher 4 alone. Valve's smaller workforce is divided between game development and other projects like Steam, which may explain the infrequency of new game releases compared to competitors like Ubisoft.
