Today, Valve launched a brand new Steam Charts web page highlighting the prime performed games on the Steam Deck. The checklist will likely be up to date every day, revealing what titles are hottest on the handheld.

The checklist features as a brand new discovery methodology for folks to know what to play on their Valve handheld. As the firm 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 games checklist 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. However, in accordance with Valve’s Lawrence Yang, the itemizing isn’t strictly primarily based on the variety of gamers in every sport.

“The metric we’re using to determine top-played is a combination of unique users and interest. Hades 2 has only been out for a month, but so many Steam Deck players have it as one of their top played games for the entire year, that it was lifted in 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 after we hear again.)

The new chart contains the present pricing and promotions for the prime 100 titles (it’s launching on the identical day that Valve’s Summer 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 checklist defaults to the previous week, however players can even see the prime 100 Steam Deck games from the previous month or the previous 12 months.
