Steam store pages now show average Steam Deck framerates from player data
Kotaku reports that Steam game pages now list an average framerate for Steam Deck, based on data from players who opted in to share it, with an expandable histogram showing how often a game hits that framerate and how often it stutters. Per Kotaku, Valve says the figures follow standardized test criteria and may not match every player's idea of acceptable performance, and it plans to extend the feature to more devices. Kotaku's examples are Final Fantasy VII Rebirth at 37 fps and Hades II at 88 fps on Steam Deck OLED; games need enough data points to show an average.
