With a fresh month here now it’s February 2026, here’s your most up to date look at what has been popular for players on the Steam Deck.

A lot of it is not exactly a surprise, most of the list never is each month but it’s still an interesting look into what people are playing Valve’s handheld across the globe.

Valve keep a dedicated list for this on Steam that’s always up to date, so based on their data over January 3rd - February 1st, the top 50 most played titles are below along with the Steam Deck Verified rating

    Is it just me or does this article seem like it was either written in a different language and poorly translated into English or by an LLM?

    Ed, here’s what I think feels like an LLM:

    Just feels off.

      Not sure how to make sense of the first one, but as for the second one, it seems like they forgot to type a word. Add “on” right before “Valve’s handheld”, and that sentence makes sense now.

      Nah, I see what you mean, but wholly disagree with the LLM idea. I believe it’s just the auther doing there thing. I’ve writen long winded messages,rereading and changing things tgat didn’t make sense, the changing the back after reading it again because now I realize why I wrote it that way.

      I’m not saying that’s what they did, but I did have to reread a few sentences to understand what I was reading.

      The author/owner for the article/site is from the UK, so it shouldn’t be a translation issue.
