As we speak, Valve launched a brand new Steam Charts web page highlighting the highest performed video games on the Steam Deck. The record can be up to date each day, revealing what titles are hottest on the hand held.
The record features as a brand new discovery technique for folks to know what to play on their Valve handheld. As the corporate has identified, a Steam sport that runs nice on a desktop PC won’t provide the identical expertise on the Steam Deck.
The information for the every day prime 100 performed video games record is sourced from a rolling time window of the previous week of stats, as Valve defined in a follow-up publish to its preliminary announcement on X. Nonetheless, in response to Valve’s Lawrence Yang, the itemizing isn’t strictly primarily based on the variety of gamers in every sport.
“The metric we’re utilizing to find out top-played is a mix of distinctive customers and curiosity. Hades 2 has solely been out for a month, however so many Steam Deck gamers have it as one among their prime performed video games for the whole 12 months, that it was lifted within the rankings.”
The Verge has reached out to Valve to make clear how curiosity in a sport is being decided. (We’ll replace this publish once we hear again.)
The brand new chart consists of the present pricing and promotions for the highest 100 titles (it’s launching on the identical day that Valve’s Summer season Sale is getting underway, which features a low cost on the LCD Steam Deck), day-to-day modifications in every sport’s rating, and whether or not the title is verified for the console so it runs with out compatibility points. The record defaults to the previous week, however players can even see the highest 100 Steam Deck video games from the previous month or the previous 12 months.
