Valve has updated its Steam Deck compatibility list with ten new titles, giving handheld owners clearer guidance on which games run smoothly on the device. This update helps players avoid compatibility headaches by confirming which titles meet the platform's performance and interface standards. Buyers can now check the official list before purchasing to ensure their favorite games will work as expected on their hardware.
Valve confirms compatibility for MOLDRISE, Iron Nest, and eight other titles
The latest batch includes two games that earned the Verified status: MOLDRISE and Iron Nest: Heavy Turret Simulator. These titles meet the strict criteria for full compatibility, meaning they launch directly and offer a complete experience without manual configuration. Players can expect these titles to integrate seamlessly into their Steam Deck library.
DragonSword: Awakening received the Playable badge, a lower tier that indicates minor issues like small in-game text. The remaining eight titles—Aggelos 2, Dogpile, Gunvolt Chronicles: Luminous Avenger iX 1+2 Dual Collection, Project P.I.T.T., Mark of the Deep, Turnip Mountain, and K-pop Idol Stories: Road to Debut—all achieved Verified status. This mix of Verified and Playable ratings provides a nuanced view of the current software landscape.
Several of these new additions are not yet released, with Aggelos 2 and Project P.I.T.T. scheduled for launch in August 2026. The pricing for available titles ranges from $5.99 on sale to $29.99 for full-priced releases. This variety in cost and release timing allows users to plan their purchases around both budget and availability.
When we covered the last Steam Deck update, several of the same balance and stability themes came up. Valve continues to refine its compatibility standards, ensuring that new releases meet the expectations of the handheld community. This ongoing process helps maintain a high quality of experience for users across the platform.
