As of January 2024 - 75 of the Top 100 most played Steam games work on Steam Deck

Here's an up to date look at the current state of the most played games on Steam, and how many of they run on Steam Deck and Linux as a whole. In case you missed it: the Steam Deck recently crossed over 13,000 games rated at least Playable.

Checking via the Steam Deck Verified rating (either Verified or Playable), and then the ProtonDB rating across Platinum - Gold - Silver - Bronze or Broken / Linux Native Support for desktop Linux.

While the top 100 changes fairly often, it's an interesting way to look at overall compatibility. From top to bottom based on peak player count, here's how things stack up with this snapshot of Steam's most played taken on January 5th - 2024, 18:45 UTC.

Overall we're seeing 75/100 at least rated Playable on Steam Deck and 78/100 work on desktop Linux with a Gold rating on ProtonDB or higher (or the game has official Native Linux support). Of those, 26 advertise they have Native Linux support. Things are looking pretty good overall for the popular games! Game Name (Steam Link)

So there you have it, that's the current state for the start of 2024. I purposefully kept in a few odd ones like Wallpaper Engine, and Rocket League even though you can no longer get it on Steam, since this is just taking the Top 100 as it is at the time for Steam overall.

At least 12 of the Unsupported games are due to anti-cheat issues, although some like SMITE do need a re-check from Valve. Anti-Cheat continues to be a major source of annoyance for Steam Deck / Linux gamers overall.

Are there any ratings for the games listed above you feel Valve need to change? If so, why? Let me know all your thoughts in the comments on the current state of things.
