Steam Deck / Big Picture Mode users rejoice, the newer Steam Store home page has been fully upgraded and rolled out to everyone now.
This newer design brings Steam more inline with what they're doing across the rest of the store. And, since they've added quite a lot of things over the years - they needed to clean it up a bit and actually make use of some of what they've added.
Like the mouse highlight over recommendations - the pop-up UI will give you some more clear information about it without you having to go direct to the game page. You'll also notice the sections for games on sale from your wishlist and recommended DLC are sticking around permanently now, instead of just during sales events. And, that fancy personalized release calendar they made is actually showcased on the home page now too - that covers recently releases and upcoming games. Quite useful overall!
Everything should just look better too - thanks to higher resolution game art.
Finally as well, the store might not be quite so terrible to use on Steam Deck / SteamOS and Desktop Big Picture Mode. Valve said there's been "significant improvements to navigation" for anyone using a gamepad there which is good to see, sure took a while though. At least when the Steam Machine finally releases this summer, it might not see so many complaints about shopping for new games on it.
See it all on the Steam Store and the blog post announcement.
