Valve unveils most-played games on Steam Deck

Valve has introduced a new chart displaying the top 100 most-played games on the Steam Deck, sortable by week, month, or year and updated daily.

The debut chart shows Elden Ring at the top, thanks to the recent release of Shadow of the Erdtree and the patch.

Valve’s Lawrence Yang explained to The Verge that the rankings are based on a mix of unique users and interest. For instance, Hades 2 quickly rose in the rankings despite being out for only a month.

Following Elden Ring, Stardew Valley holds second place, and the deck-building game Balatro is in third. Both Hades 2 and its predecessor, Hades, are in the top ten. Unexpected entries include Kingdom Hearts HD 1.5 + 2.5 ReMIX in fifth place and Fallout 4 in sixth.
