With Steam Deck launching in December 2021, Valve is taking some time to make sure gamers know which titles will work on their mobile devices. although Location It always promises you “Your Steam Library, Anywhere”, We had an interest – and a bit of doubt – about whether games designed for PC will run well on a Linux mobile device.
The company recently opened its website @over the bridge A Twitter account has been revealed today to highlight the PC game shows playing on Steam Deck Steam surface compatibility software.
Steam Deck compatibility stickers appear on all games released through Steam, divided into four categories. The highest level, verified, has a green logo with a check mark, indicating games that perform “great performance on Steam Deck, out of the box”.
The next step is a yellow exclamation point to turn on, which means you may need to change the settings manually for this to work. The other two tags are for games that are not supported on Steam Deck or just unknown because they haven’t been tested yet.

Verified games work with the on-screen keyboard, support native Steam Deck resolutions, support the entire operating system, and you can navigate their menus with a controller. The front page of the integrated store will only display verified games, but you can still browse or search the entire store.
valve too Information for developers To check that their games support the laptop and the steps anyone should take to submit their titles for review. “Important” games can be reviewed even if they are not submitted manually, and developers can submit titles for review before release. One thing to note is that even if a developer thinks their game isn’t suitable for Steam Deck, there is no way to hide it from the device’s built-in store. Valve says that “instead of completely restricting access to certain products, we want to enable customers to find the right products based on their specific goals and desires.”
For PC gaming, compatibility and setup across a wide range of devices are always strengths and weaknesses. Everything from proprietary control systems to anti-cheat software can mess it up, and it’s good to see Valve taking proactive steps to help owners know which titles will work right away. Now we just need to know which games don’t pass the test.
