Over the last week or so, I went to Gamescom to represent SteamDeckHQ, and it was a blast. I got to see so many awesome games and talk to many developers and publishers, and the majority of them were either very receptive, optimistic, or have already started implementing Steam Deck support!

In our article, we go over some examples, as well as me being known as "The Steam Deck Guy." Though one I am happy to share is that the upcoming Epic Mickey Rebrushed will have full Steam Deck support at launch, and playing it on the Deck at Gamescom was phenomenal.

There's much more we go into detail with in the article, but in the end, it's looking very optimistic for Steam Deck support for future games.

To add, it's even reached out to non-nerds. My brother, who isn't THAT tech literate picked one up and he's absolutely loving it. He hasn't had a gaming PC ever but he's getting tons of time on the Steamdeck and we've had zero issues playing games online together and using the steam voice chat.
