Valve Adds "Great on Steam Deck" Category to Steam Store
Valve, the developer behind the Steam gaming platform, has introduced a new "Great on Steam Deck" category within its digital storefront. This move suggests preparations for the upcoming launch of Valve's anticipated virtual reality hardware.
Valve, the company known for its dominant PC gaming platform Steam, has launched a new category in its digital store titled "Great on Steam Deck." This addition signals potential progress towards the release of Valve's own virtual reality hardware.
The newly established category lists games that are specifically optimized for use with Valve's upcoming VR device. Titles currently featured include "Portal 2," "The Lab," and "Into the Darkness." The inclusion of this category points to Valve actively developing an ecosystem around its projected hardware.
Valve has previously ventured into hardware with products like the Steam Machine consoles and the Steam Controller. The Steam Frame represents a potential expansion into the virtual reality market, an area of increasing interest for technology companies.
Developments concerning the Steam Frame have been ongoing, with recent information suggesting the hardware is nearing readiness. A driver update for a wireless adapter, marked as "released," has fueled speculation about an imminent launch. The introduction of this specific store category further reinforces these expectations.
