The Steam Deck Verified badge could not at all times be correct, however it’s nonetheless superior to see. It signifies {that a} sport could be performed on the Deck and ought to be a strong expertise. Now, it appears Valve is giving a brand new technique to promote these prestigious video games with devoted pages to indicate off their Verified standing.
Initially seen from a Twitter/X put up about Berserk Boy’s devoted web page, a bunch of video games appear to be getting new touchdown pages to indicate off their Steam Deck Verified standing. On the web page, we are able to see on the prime that it’s Verified, reveals a trailer on a Steam Deck display screen, after which offers us some extra particulars concerning the sport, together with present pricing, tags, developer, launch date, and critiques. It is a neat little technique to showcase that the sport is nice to play on the Deck.
After performing some analysis, evidently these pages aren’t fully new, however it’s being pushed to builders in an odd method. In an article by Liam from GamingOnLinux, he observe sthat these pages have been round since 2023, however there appears to be a latest push to builders for this. This was corroborated on BlueSky when the developer of Black Dragon Mage responded to a put up of his mentioning they just lately obtained an electronic mail about it from Valve.
Oddly sufficient, these pages are not simply accessible both. Liam notes that these pages exist for many Verified video games, however the one technique to entry them with out the developer or writer linking to it’s manually placing in a sport’s AppID into the tackle:
I may also affirm that solely Verified video games will work right here. Making an attempt to place within the AppID of a Playable, Unknown, or Unsupported sport will simply convey it again to the conventional Steam web page.
It is a good way for builders to promote the coveted badge they earned, however it appears they might want to do some heavy lifting and hyperlink to it themselves, as there would not appear to be any particular part on their retailer web page to indicate it. Hopefully, we can be seeing extra of those pop up as extra builders make the most of them!
