Through a Tweet, Greg Coomer, designer of Valve, revealed which were the ten most played titles on the Steam Deck to May 2022 by the owners of the portable console-PC. Below is the complete top 10, drawn up on the basis of number of hours game:
- Elden Ring
- Vampire Survivors
- Rogue Legacy 2
- Stardew Valley
- No Man’s Sky
- Slay the Spire
- Hades
- The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt
- The Binding of Isaac: Rebirth
- Aperture Desk Job
As we can see in the first place there is, without major surprises in this regard, Elden Ring, the latest effort by FromSoftware that monopolized the videogame landscape during the first half of 2022. In second place we find Vampire Survivors, an all-Italian indie title characterized by a minimalist gameplay action in which we will have to tear apart the immense hordes of vampires, of which you can read our tried. The podium closes with Rogue Legacy 2, the excellent sequel to Cellar Door Games’ rogue-like (here our review).
For the rest in the top 10 we find the evergreen No Man’s Sky, Stardew Valley, The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt, Hades, The Binding of Isaac and Slay The Spire, a title that mixes the mechanics of card games and roguelikes, all in all perfect from play in portability. Closes the top 10 Aperture Desk Job, the Steam Deck launch game set in the Portal universe.
Staying on the subject, Valve in recent days announced the postponement of the official Steam Deck dock due to the poor availability of components.
