Valve’s Steam Deck and SteamOS have reached a milestone where the library of officially rated games has surpassed 30,000 titles. Data indicates this total is comprised of approximately 8,900 to 9,000 ‘Verified’ games and over 21,000 ‘Playable’ titles.

While the Proton compatibility layer allows many ‘Unsupported’ games to function, the growth of the official rating system represents a significant evolution for the handheld console since its launch. Challenges remain regarding performance consistency for some verified titles and restrictions imposed by certain publishers' anti-cheat software on Linux-based platforms.
