Offer PKR as Region currency for Pakistan
RN Pakistani steam store has prices in USD, which are getting out of hand due to inflation and recession. Would be a great ease if Steam can offer prices in PKR

Developers ultimately set the prices for the products they create.

Valve only sets the prices for their own properties.

Until the global economy settles down, don't expect new currencies to be added.

Things to consider.
  1. PKR wouldn't automatically be set for any products, developers would have to update their products to have PKR pricing and that will take years.
  2. There's no particular guarantee prices would automatically be less or as cheap as you want to see.
  3. Businesses aren't going to be rushing off to add currencies and discount pricing for currencies that are already very low value and losing value at a steady rate. It's a lot of work for little value. The PKR has lot 34% of it's value in the last year, for example.

It's pretty bleak for the short term. I hope things get better for everyone.
thanks for clarifying
