Вставка
- Опубліковано 3 тра 2024
- Just bought yourself a Steam Deck and need games to play? Start right here friendo, and let's get huffing that good stuff.
The Switch might have had a long run at the top as the handheld console of choice, but Valve have made a great case for themselves with the Steam Deck. Being able to play the hundreds, if not thousands of Steam titles you already own while on the go is quite the liberating feeling, so it’s no surprise that the Steam Deck has been considered by many to be worth its weight in gold.
Still, for all of the Steam Deck’s benefits, a console can only ever be as good as the games you can play on it, so it’s fortunate that there are thousands of titles that are already available for the Steam Deck that you can enjoy right now. We’ve narrowed that massive library down even further so you know which titles to play once you get your grubby mitts on Valve’s new box of wonders. Here’s the best Steam Deck games you should check out on your portable powerhouse.

Steam deck has made it possible to streamline gaming overall making console exclusive less of a thing : Sony's PC ports as mentionned, Xbox always ported to PC, Nintendo with the possibility of emulation, Steam exclusives and overall games that require more advance hardware to run. All of this while being able to be portable or play like a console docked is amazing
What are ya playing at the minute?
@@CulturedVultures Dark Souls 1 for longer sessions, replaying Ori and the Blind Forest with my girlfriend for the 3rd time and Rogue Legacy 1 for shorter session :)
Also, I've been watching most of your "best-of" series and really enjoyed it, keep up the good work man :)
@@simlalOri is such an underrated masterpiece
you've put a tremendous amount of time in this video and it is appreciated. thank you!
29k gang, great video. I’m so excited as I just got my steam deck 3 days ago and cannot wait to get games and start playing. These types of videos are amazing for helping with ideas on what to add to my wish list. I’ve never done any PC gaming before I’ve always had consoles so I’m a bit nervous about all the proton talk I’ve heard and fiddling I may have to learn in order to play my games so If anyone has any tips, tricks or suggestions for games to play on my new deck I would be extremely grateful. Hopefully this will be a stepping stone to me someday gaming on a full PC. Take care everyone .
let us know what you play! :)
Have fun, I like to use my nreal air glasses with my deck to get the big screen experience in bed or on trips
The Steam deck and PC gaming in general is not as complicated as you may expect. I would definitely recommend new Deckers and PC gamers to watch some beginners guide and tips and tricks videos, just to understand the basics and get the most out of your gaming experience!
Awesome games that run surprisingly well I've played on the OLED: Aliens Dark Descent, Alien Isolation, Arkham Knight, Crysis Remastered 1-3, Days Gone, Dead Space Remake, Dishonored 2, Dying Light, Elden Ring, Fallout 3/4/ & NV(even with mods!), Gears Tactics, Lies of P, Prey, Rage 1 & 2, Sekiro, Shadow Tactics, System Shock Remake, Rogue Trader, Wasteland 3, and Witcher 3.
playing Days Gone rn!
Thanks for the nice wrap up! I'd love to see something like this without cinematic trailers and more gameplay footage.
29K GANG!
Awesome video... Thanks for the recommendations.
Thank you for a relatively refreshing and very fitting list of amazing games! 👍🏽
Astral Ascend is a Roguelike worth mentioning. It mixes the builds and hub world of Hades with the 2D platforming presentation of Dead Cells. The story isn’t anything to get excited about, but the game has some of the smoothest combat I’ve experienced in a game.
29k Gang, amazing vid, who needs to endlessly search for games when you do that for me, few games here I’ve added, thanks again keep it up!.
Congrats! You won the giveaway!

29K GANG
great list thanks for the chance subscribed
You guys deserve 100x the views you’re getting.
I would add a few for sure to this list:
- Little Nightmares 1 and 2
- Ori
- Risk of Rain 2 and Returns
- The Witcher 3
- Xcom2
- And my recent favorite Deep Rock Galactic: Survivor
I give a shoutout to Deep Rock Galactic: Survivor! love that game
Ori and the wotw is probably my favorite. I’m replaying it on the steam deck rn. I played it on Xbox the first time but now I can play it just about anywhere on an OLED screen
Idk man I had Witcher 3 and it performed poorly on deck
I literally can’t stop playing deep rock survivor
which games are listed on the outros? @@CulturedVultures
Great video!
29K Gang :-)
I just got my first Steam Deck and love it! Children of Mortal and Hades look and play great. Also just bought Stardew Valley and it’s so much fun….. once you know the tips and tricks.
Outerwilds is also a must on the deck
I would probably add automata! But then again we have metal gear rising so it's all good!
29K GANG!
new to the steamdeck and loving it!
Great video. However some of your games require a mouse and the steam deck isn't great when a mouse is needed.
I recommend games that have been ported from console like days gone and horizon forbidden west. They run and play great!
29k GANG! First video I've watched of the channel, really enjoyed it! Thanks for ruining my wallet and steam library even more
one of the best games for the steam deck is ff7 remake. Unfortunately not listed here. It runs smoothly, fast and is a lot of fun. My favorite game on the deck
My games on steam deck:
- metal gear solid: phantom pain (running like dream)
-dirt rally
- riders republic
- mafia definitive edition
-Red dead redemption 2
Phantom Pain is great! I definitely needed to tweak down the settings though, it ate my battery in like an hour haha
@@CulturedVultures yes i have classic LCD model, my settings is like medium/high game looks still awesome and running on 15watts playtime like 2hours few minutes.. but i have 40000mah powerbank with 100w charging, i collecting money for OLED model i like tuned up its awesome.. my friend had it and its totally amazing handheld i love it.. I love fact playing all MGS on my steam deck, 1,2,3 duckstation and RCPS, i heavy recommended try MGS 1 play with duckstation emu, you can forced resolution its awesome loooking :O a idont know why konami creating his bull...hit :D mastercollection is horrible,,, i love emu. But i love kojima work i buy every game :)
but mgs 4 running by emulator like 30-35FPS stable, 4hours of my life for all settings, rewritting folders and other fixes... looks greate but consuming 21-22watts :D god of war playing with happy face on 20 :D
Slay the spires is hands down the best title I’ve found whilst playing on steam. 29kgang!
belated 29K gang (that's actually 30.3K gang now, let's keep it going)
29k gang and good luck to everyone!
zomboid has been one of my favorite games for years, great dev.
Same! Would love to stream it
I was expecting to see titles like Ori, Little nightmares, Oddworld and Hotline Miami in the list.
At least, those are interesting to me. All the Sega Genesis and mega drive classics too.
Fantastic!
Lot of those games have mobile ports to BE honest, if someone does not have a Steam deck can get a controller gamesir or ipega? And Turn the phone intro a console.
Allways important to Say🎉
Looks like you owe us the project zomboid stream!!!
OTXO, HiFi Rush, Somerville and Stray are all very great on the steamdeck.
Here's my suggestions buy these :- mark of the ninja,little nightmares both , inside and limbo , tekken 8 , mgsv tpp and gz , splinter cell series , cup head series
You know you can tinker with the settings? I play on my steam deck at home exclusively, so being steam deck verified I can increase the graphic settings in exchange for battery life. Which is likely 1-2 hours.
Outrun ensured that Yakuza Zero is never uninstalled from my Steam Deck, I still have to find and unlock Super Hang On, Sega games have occupied my Steam Deck SSD for more than two years.
Whipper. Whipper good. Da da da da da, crack that whipper.
I just realized this is 3 weeks old dang can't win being this late
Bro the games you put over Elden ring and god of war hurt my soul
I didn't like Hades at first but I stuck with it and really enjoyed the gameplay. Dead Cells was great, did you play Skul the hero slayer? I liked that one just as much as the others. I haven't tried hollow knight or vampire survivors yet but I will eventually.
Skul I have heard really good things about, bit of an under the radar hit! I would recommend Curse of the Dead Gods as well if you enjoy suffering :)
The first few are style picks rather than quality picks.
I’m 24 I’ve been gaming my whole life I always thought the best console was ps2 and that couldn’t be beaten but the steam deck is my favourite gaming device ever the game support on this thing especially when you include emulation is insane
I’m almost 48 I’ve been gaming since your GAY ASS wasn’t even born yet 😃
29k gang Thanks!
Number 1 game for me to play on steamy deck, Morrowind
If You like Yakuza 0, need to try Sleeping Dogs too! It's the number 1 for me.
Bg3 isn't fully playable, first 2 parts are barely playable and third party simply isn't. Verified doesn't mean shit.
yeah it's why we put it waaaay back, it's worth dipping your toe in on SD at least
I put 100 hours in on Steam deck. It's absolutely playable. Sure Act 3 can be rough in certain areas, but it's turn based combat so it doesn't really hinder your ability to play.
Damn I love that music from god hand
where's palworld? Helldivers 2? they both run great and came out in time for the list. Or maybe they just haven't been out long enough?
Helldivers does not run well on the steam deck outside of the first difficulty. Anything else is way too demanding
@@SavageSenzu that's hasn't been my experience. Sucks for you I guess
@@bilimayo281what settings are you using? Low settings?
@@isakboba6487 medium
29K GANG!
You should put control
29K Gang!
I thought I was the only one that smelled the vent everytime hahaha
The forbidden hole...
I can’t believe Baldur’s Gate Free isn’t furver up the list!
29k gang , 🎉🎉
29K GANG!
Keep up the good work.
29K GANG!!
29K Gang ❤️
29k gang. I like playing arpg's on the steam deck.
What's your favourite one atm?
29k Gang!!!
I assure you guys..... BG3 looks ways better then that.... I play medium settings at 1280x800 it runs between 28 to 42fps .... (for a turn based game... this is not that bad)
3:46 pause.
If these games are the best for you! don't even want to Imagine which ones are the worst 😅
29k gang gang let’s gooooooooooooo
Borderlands 2 ist great on the Deck ❤
29k Gang!
HiFi-Rush !!
Be honest, how does RDR2 run on the deck? I never really hear anyone talking much about it
It’s a steady 40-45 fps on the deck. It may drop a few times or even at more heavier moments. But it’s fun and looks visually great on handheld. It also has decent battery life while playing it too.
👆
Runs like playing god of war, runs super smooth, not right out of the box though, you will have to tinker with some settings to get a decent frame rate but it does run really well. 👍🏾
No Balatro should be considered a crime.
it came out as we were finishing editing this!
29k gang!
29k gang gang!
29k gang!!
29K GANG :0
Hades made my steam deck buttons to be ruined
Just becaused its verified doesnt mean it plays good on steam deck. Examples are BG3 and Elden Ring. Yes you can play them basically. But both look pretty shitty on the Deck and in terms of Input lag and dependancy of fps Elden Ring is also not a really good experience on the deck. Even Cyberpunk 2077 ... thats completely missing and would be usually a top 3 title, is playing better on deck than BG3 and ER.
A good old fashioned what? 😅

Project zomboid is the shiz I just have to say
Just bought Jedi fallen order for 3.99!!!!
Killer deal! btw if you just want to "rent" their games for a month, a lot of EA's game's are Deck Verified and you can sub to EA Play for like $5 or something :)
Literally could have put any AAA title around and the only one I see is elden ring.
respectfully. open your eyes then
Removed my like when i didn’t see red dead 2 criminal that it isn’t on the list
Need a lot of tinkering and tweaking for not very long battery life, brilliant game obviously but not perfect for the Deck
Hey just so you know the pop-up card thing for stardew says insomniac instead of the actual developer
For those who want play BG3 on SD you can get much better picture then this footage with consistent 30fps, this footage is awful.
29K gang
You can make bg3 look better than this on deck
29k gang
Where is tf2😢
Titanfall 2 is forever in our hearts
There was. a time Sony Sega Microsoft Nintendo And Atari Created 8 consoles the Sega Created the genesis and the dreamcast Microsoft Created the Xbox and its successor the Xbox 360 Sony Created The PlayStation 2 and 3 and Atari Created 1600 and the 1800
but out came Gabe Newell and his band of Ruffians and Created The Steam Deck with intentions to rule 8bit earth and he succeeded in Creating the best console ever made
THY CONSOLE TO RULE THEM ALL
Lord Of The 8bits
Fellowship of The sonic Rings
You don’t t have Terraria on the list? Shame!
Sorry! we really tried to be varied
Read dead redemption 2 online
I wish I would’ve bought a steam deck on day 1. I’ve played more video games since I’ve bought it.
what? stardew valley is not developed by Insomniac games.
Yeah, just an editing error!
29kgang
elden ring pvp on steam deck xD
Fallout series? No… no… that’s always the answer 😢
I don’t use Steam. I made an account, bought a few games, then started gifting games to some of my Discord friends. Steam shut me down because I was acting like a “commercial “ entity. Jerks.
Gift some to me bro 😢
Can I be your discord friend then 😮
Sounds sus to me
Don't believe everything you read
what did you expect
Sheesh
Metal Gear without Snake is just LGBTQ.
...???
What a useless list why show a bunch of games you can play on consoles. Was hoping you would show pc games that cant be played elsewhere.
Every list is basically the same, y'all really gotta stop just copy pasting titles from the verified page and just sprinkling in some "other" titles doesn't cut it. Alone the fact you added Baldurs Gate 3 while it is barely playable and shouldn't even count as verified is telling. There is such an abundance of unsupported / "playable" titles which proved to be an absolute banger, games that can be run off of any other online platform which run and play super well as well as the entire sector of emulation possibilites, which seem to be mostly ignored entirely. Shame.
Here you have a "different" list:
RimWorld
Halo MCC
Binding of Isaac Rebirth
Starcraft 1+2
Fallout 3/4
Skyrim SE
Divinity 2
Borderlands 2/3
Stellaris
Cyberpunk 2077 (with Cryo)
Starbound
Supreme Commander FA
Stellaris
Armored Core VI
Sleeping Dogs
GTA IV + V
Far Cry 2
Wreckfest
Mount and Blade 2 Bannerlord
Halflife 2 + Expansions
The Forest
Jagged Alliance 3
Hitman WOA
Elden Ring
Dark Souls 3
Far Cry 3 / 5
Outlast + Whistleblower
Resident Evil 2
XCom 2
Prototype 1+2
Song of Syx
Hotline Miami 1+2
Plus an endless amount of games that can be emulated without issue, fave example is the Metroid Prime Collection.
