Valve begins showing Steam Machine compatibility ratings on Steam

Valve started displaying Steam Machine compatibility ratings on Steam store pages last night. The ratings appear under a new tab in the existing Steam Deck compatibility section.

The company announced the expansion of its verification program to the Steam Machine about a month ago. Ratings now indicate whether games run well at 1080p and 30 FPS on the hardware.

Many titles that run on SteamOS but exceed Steam Deck limits show an “Unknown” status for the Steam Machine. Valve states it is “still learning about” these games.

Users can access the ratings by clicking “Learn more” next to Steam Deck compatibility details on store pages. Some games rated Playable on the Deck, such as 007: First Light, receive Verified status on the Steam Machine due to larger screen size.

Dota 2 remains listed as Playable because of occasional on-screen keyboard needs. A Valve representative did not immediately respond to requests for comment.

Valve's new Steam Controller, successor to the 2015 model and inspired by Steam Deck prototypes, launches May 4 for $99 in the US ($149 CAD, €99 EU, £85 UK, A$149 AU, 419 PLN PL). Featuring dual touchpads, TMR thumbsticks, and a wireless Puck dongle, it offers precise PC gaming while escaping hardware delays affecting Steam Machine and Frame.

Valve has confirmed that both its Steam Machine console-like PC and Steam Frame VR headset will ship this summer. The announcement came in a blog post that also detailed updates to the company's Verified program for the new devices.

Valve is actively working on a Steam Deck 2, programmer Pierre-Loup Griffais has confirmed to IGN. The company wants silicon advancements that deliver true next-generation performance, which current system-on-chip options do not provide. No release is imminent due to these hardware limitations.

Valve has updated the tagging system on its Steam platform by adding 17 new tags and removing 28 others. The changes aim to improve how players discover games that match their interests.
