MultiVersus, a fighting game, is the biggest title on Steam Deck

As you probably know, the steam deck is very popular. Valve’s portable PC has quickly built a large community around it and has become the preferred way for many to play their favorite Steam games on the go. but which games exactly are all these new steam deck owners playing? You’d think it would be smaller, fast-paced games that are easy to pause, as is the case with most handheld and mobile games. Well, Valve has shared some data and it seems that many of you really like to play multiverse and elden ring while on the toilet.

Not what you would have guessed, right?

This morning on Twitter, Valve’s official Steam Deck Twitter account, has posted a list of the top ten most played games on Steam Deck over the past week. valve cleared in a follow-up tweet that the list is sorted by daily average user counts.

• multiverse
• Vampire Survivor

• Stray
• elden ring
• Nobody’s heaven
• Hades
• Stardew Valley
• Grand Theft Auto V
• Aperture desk job
• Monster Hunter Ascension

As for the list, yes, the recently released free-to-play smash bros-like fighting game, multiverse, is at the top. A bit strange to see a fighting game at the top of the list, but being free probably helped. It’s also possible that people have figured out interesting ways to play multiverse and other games on this list thanks to the Steam Deck is funky but versatile controls. Let’s just hope WB doesn’t kill this game alongside everything else it canceled recently.

It’s also funny that some people admit to the game multiverse hands cramp on deck, but the appeal of having it on the go is just too great.

No shock to see Stray in third place as the game is already popular, not very expensive and seems to be the perfect game for the Steam Deck. Maybe play it on the porch at night with a gentle rain in the background. Nice. No surprise either to see GTA V on the list because at this point it seems like half the world is playing this game on any platform. So why not the Steam Deck?

Also of course elden ring—one of the biggest and most popular games of 2022– at the top of the list. Personally, I’m not sure I’d be able to enjoy it on Steam Deck, but I also don’t like FromSoftware games on any platform.

I hope Valve releases more dates steam deck Games in the future, maybe even a similar list of top 10 most played games on portable PC for all of 2022. Oh and also, maybe I’ll ship my Steam deck soon? Thank you Valve!
