Steam Deck Won T Have Exclusive Games Valve Confirms

When Valve announced the Steam Deck, it revealed a portable device capable of playing PC games on the go. While Nintendo Switch comparisons were certainly made, there was also a common question: would the Steam Deck have exclusive games? The answer is a definitive no.

While there won’t be any exclusives on the Steam Deck, that doesn’t mean Valve isn’t paying attention to what games are available on it. In fact, it’s reviewing the entire Steam library to check for compatibility issues, so our list of the best games to play on the portable could certainly get much bigger.

As for when PC gamers can get their hands on one, a recent delay bumped the Steam Deck’s shipping date to February 2022. Orders will start shipping out then.
