One surprising game that made the top ten on the Steam Deck chart is Kingdom Hearts HD 1.5 + 2.5 ReMIX, securing fifth place. This is unexpected due to its recent addition to Steam after being exclusive to the Epic Games Store for three years.
Valve added a new chart to Steam Deck, showcasing the top 100 most-played games on the platform. This list can be sorted by the past week, month, or year and will be updated daily. The ranking is determined by a combination of unique users and interest, not solely by the number of players.
Hades 2 has performed exceptionally well on the Steam Deck chart, quickly rising to the top position in May 2024. The game's popularity is attributed to its full Deck support, being a visual upgrade over the original while remaining light on requirements, and offering more content than the final release of the first Hades. Its success highlights the strong partnership between Supergiant Games and Valve in optimizing the game for Steam Deck users.
