Valve releases a new patch with language support improvements and controller functionality enhancements.
The latest update adds Malay language support to the Steam Deck client, expanding accessibility for non-English speakers. Additionally, GameCube rumble support is now available in PC mode when using an adapter.
- Language Support: Malay language added
- Controller Rumble: GameCube rumble support in PC mode
- Action Set Fix: Fixed selected action set resetting during configurator edits
- Virtual Menu Bug: Fixed virtual menus binding issue when accessed via link
- Runtime Container: Steam Deck client now runs inside Steam Runtime container
Several bugs have been fixed in this release, including a reset issue where action sets would clear during configurator edits. The virtual menu binding problem has also been resolved when accessed via specific links on the source page.
A major technical change moves the Steam Deck client into the Steam Runtime container for more consistent performance across different game environments. This architecture shift improves stability and ensures a smoother experience regardless of the underlying system configuration.
The update brings the SteamRT3 beta client to 64-bit support, addressing limitations that previously restricted compatibility with certain applications. Users in Beta or Preview channels should ensure their update channel is set correctly to receive this change.
