Steam Deck hits 30,000 compatible games, according to SteamDB
Valve's Steam Deck has reached a milestone of 30,000 compatible games, including both 'Verified' and 'Playable' titles. Despite the device's Linux-based operating system, it supports a vast library of games through the Proton compatibility layer, though some titles with strict anti-cheat software remain unsupported.
Why it matters
The success of the Steam Deck demonstrates the growing viability of handheld PC gaming and the effectiveness of compatibility software in bridging OS gaps.
Valve's portable gaming PC now has confirmed compatibility with over 30,000 games, according to new data from SteamDB.
The Steam Deck might already be over four years old, but games continue to be added to the official 'Steam Deck Verified' list , including recently announced titles such as NBA 2K27. The handheld device has now hit a key milestone, with third-party database SteamDB now recording over 30,000 Steam games which are either 'Steam Deck Verified' or 'Steam Deck Playable'. Of the 30,065 games currently on SteamDB's list meeting either of these two categories ( which you can view here ), 8,970 are fully-verified, while the remaining 21,095 titles are marked as playable.
