Xbox continues to expand its library of native games for the Steam Deck handheld console, having previously announced 14 games that would work at launch on the console. Now, 11 more Xbox games have been confirmed to officially support the Steam Deck, working 100% without any problem or error.
Through the official page of Steam, the list of new Xbox games that are now fully shareable has been published. Let’s remember that Steam classifies the games in its Steam Deck as verified, eligible, and unsupported. All 11 new games are verified, meaning they will work natively on the console. In addition, Aaron Greenberg has said that many more titles will come in the future.

The reason why having the verified tab is so important is explained by Steam in a statement (translated): “Our existing standards for titles to earn a Verified or Playable rating are very high. If a game displays system errors and tells you to “press F” sometimes during gameplay, that’s Playable, not Verified. If you can access 99% of a game’s functionality, but access to an optional in-game minigame crashes or a walkthrough video doesn’t render, that’s not supported.” In this way, verified games are very important, since they will run as if they were native to the console, that is, without any problem.
Good news for Xbox fans who already have their Steam Deck in hand, as they will now be able to play titles like Gears Tactics, Minecraft Dungeons or Ori and the Blind Forest for example in full. We leave you the list with the 11 new games below:
