The first batch of Steam Deck Verified Games has been released.

Valve has announced the first set of Steam Deck verified games and the list has some true heavy hitters of recent times like Psychonauts 2, Death Stranding and others. The company’s first handheld PC is turning out to be a great success even before it officially starts shipping. Valve has decided to choose its own Linux-based SteamOS rather than a Windows OS, raising questions about compatibility. However, Valve has assured players that they won’t face any compatibility issues and can even replace the OS completely.

The new Steam Deck verified games list has been shared by SteamDB, which reveals that a total of 38 Steam games are now verified games for the handheld. However, out of the total 38 games, 24 games are listed as playable while 5 as unsupported, four are VR games, and Persona 4 Golden. Take a look at all of the Steam Deck verified games below.​

  • Portal 2
  • The Binding of Isaac: Rebirth
  • Celeste
  • Hollow Knight

The list above looks pretty neat and includes some fantastic titles spanning genres, including some indie titles. Valve had earlier planned to release the Steam Deck late last year, but pushed the release date to early 2022, citing ongoing hardware shortages. With February just around the corner, we can expect Valve to come out with more information about the handheld’s global release date and other relevant details. The handheld gaming PC packs in some serious power under the hood and can be easily plugged into a TV or monitor for a better gaming experience. Players can also plug in peripherals like the keyboard and mouse whenever needed.
