Steam Deck is just over two weeks from the official launch and the library of playable games is growing in an extremely quick fashion.
Steam Deck will technically have access to countless games but they are best played when properly adapted to the platform. When this happens, the game becomes "Steam Deck verified" which means it is expected to run smoothly and everything should work properly. Meanwhile, if a game is playable in Steam Deck, it is expected to properly launch and play but the user might run into some issue during the experience.
