Valve has released a new Steam update that adds Steam Deck framerate data to a game's store page, giving potential buyers an indication of how well a game runs on the handheld.
In Eurogamer’s words.2
Background: Steam Deck
The Steam Deck is a handheld gaming computer produced by Valve Corporation, designed to run games available on its Steam storefront. Built upon the experiences gained from Valve's earlier ventures with the original 2015 Steam Machine and the Steam Controller, the Steam Deck integrates a custom AMD APU and SteamOS, a Linux-based operating system.3
