Valve has introduced a new feature on Steam that provides average frame rate data for games on the Steam Deck, based on anonymized data from players who have opted in. This feature is available on the store pages of games that have been tested for Steam Deck compatibility, including those with Verified, Playable, or Unsupported badges. The data includes average frame rates and histograms showing the distribution of frame rates, helping players understand the performance of a game on the Steam Deck. Valve acknowledges that the data may be influenced by factors such as VSync and custom in-game settings, but it believes the data still provides a useful overview of game performance. The feature is currently limited to the Steam Deck but Valve plans to expand it to other devices in the future.
