What games are verified for Steam Deck?

There are plenty of titles available to play on Valve's new handheld.

Valve’s Steam Deck is out, bringing handheld goodness to PC gamers everywhere. The company is currently in the process of working through the considerable catalog of games and verifying which ones are prepared for play on the new console. It’s a gradual process, but Valve has already confirmed some titles for use, according to SteamDB.

There are three categories in use: Verified, which means the game is good to go on the new device; Playable, which means that the game functions fine but may have some issues, ranging from text size issues to problems with cross-platform saving; and Unsupported, those games that lack support for the Steam Deck altogether. This latter category is largely comprised of VR games, which the Steam Deck explicitly does not support, and those whose anti-cheat systems have not yet been optimized for the system.

If SteamDB isn’t your thing, don’t worry: you can check to see which games in your library are verified via Steam itself. In any case, here’s the current rundown of which games are Verified, Playable, and Unsupported on Steam Deck.
