Focus Home Interactive has recently made an agreement with Valve official, in an effort to introduce TrackMania United via Steam, a leading digital distribution platform for PC games. TrackMania United is the newest title in the racing series available now at a 20% discount for those who preorder it via Steam by June 14.

"Trackmania has captured the attention of both racing and action gamers across Europe and the world," said Jason Holtman, director of business development at Valve. "The launch of this title not only expands Steam's collection of racing titles, but also continues in the Steam tradition of introducing innovative titles to our worldwide audience of over 13 million customers and growing."

Don't be surprised to hear that Valve has taken so many developers and publishers under its protective wing. It's the case with Lara Croft: Tomb Raider Anniversary, although, Eidos isn's kind enough to offer a discount on their title. What the heck, they don't have to, the game has barely launched.

As mentioned above, TrackMania United is the latest title in the TrackMania series, containing all the features of the previous titles. The game also introduces an extensive new content editor and an in-game browser, allowing both veteran and rookie players the ability to create, showcase and share customized paintjobs, tracks, environments and videos. TrackMania United will offer players the opportunity to enjoy an online challenge, but also single player, while taking part in a friendly and fun online community.

"As an unrivaled digital distribution platform, Steam is the ideal vehicle to introduce TrackMania United to audiences around the world," said Cedric Lagarrigue, Chief Operating Officer at Focus Home Interactive.

See the game's official site for more information, and if you've already decided that this is a must have title for you, then check with Steam for the 20 percent off preorder. However, if you haven't yet decided, do so by June 14th, 'cause after that, everything comes back to normal and you 20 percent discount will not be available anymore.
