1 Every confirmed game verified for the Steam Deck.

Finally, unsupported games flat out don’t work on the Steam Deck. Playable games are ones players have tried out, and while they work, they might have some bugs or small issues associated with them. Verified games are exactly what they sound like: games that Valve has officially started to work on Steam Deck with no issues. We will break down the list of games into three sections: verified games, playable games, and unsupported games. So far, not every game on Steam has been verified to work on the handheld, so we’ve compiled a full list of what we know you can play right now on your Steam Deck. That’s assuming all your games will work on the Steam Deck.

The console is an almost completely open platform and is much more powerful, though it does have a much bigger price tag attached. Marketed as a portal PC, the Steam Deck has all the potential to be a strong competitor to Nintendo’s Switch. Others have attempted to break into that lucrative market, PlayStation most notably with its PSP and PS Vita handhelds, but every other company has backed out for failing to hit that sweet spot of price, power, and compelling software. It essentially invented it with the original GameBoy, and each subsequent device has only gone on to be more popular and financially successful, leading all the way to the hybrid Nintendo Switch console. The handheld market has always been dominated by Nintendo.
