PayPalValve are still pushing their Steam Deck ahead with many developers now adding their own special dedicated Steam Deck Verified page.
These special areas on Steam give an uncluttered page that highlights how well a game can run on Steam Deck, it's a really neat idea to help cut through the noise. Just the game, a trailer and a link to the store page for the Steam Deck and for the game. This gives developers an easy link to advertise that their game is fully supported on the Linux powered Steam Deck.
An example below is the Hollow Knight: Silksong page:
They've actually been around for a while, as far back as 2023 from what I can tell, as I've seen a few developers (and Valve) announce them for specific games. However, there's currently no normal link to these pages on Steam that I could find. It's mainly up to developers to show them off but you can just use "https://store.steampowered.com/verified/*APPID*" and it will work (but only if they're fully green tick Verified).
It appears that Valve have recently begun emailing more developers (Bluesky) if their game is Steam Deck Verified. As a result, I've been seeing a lot of developers suddenly post about their games being Steam Deck Verified across different social media sites.
Great to see more of a push from Valve again. Especially given how ridiculously costly other handhelds are, with the Steam Deck holding up well against the competition (aside from playability of the latest AAA games or those with anti-cheat).

Love how much developers seem to be embracing the deck eco-system

I still wish Valve would adapt the Deck technology to a laptop form-factor. A 14" or 15" screen would be great. Economically priced like the Deck, of course.

The only thing that puts me off is the small screen. My eyes aren't getting any younger.I'm in the same boat, unfortunately. While glasses obviously help, I've actually started using XR glasses more and more with the Deck and it's quite enjoyable and even helps avoid shoulder/neck pains from looking down as well!
