Another round of games have gone through Valve's official testing for Steam Deck, so here's a fresh mid-July round-up of Steam Deck Verified games for you to begin your week with.

3D artists, don’t miss this bundle of tools, assets & tutorials, with a focus on Blender! Pay what you want for an invaluable toolkit & help One Tree Planted.

Inspired by the Strike series (Desert/Jungle/Urban Strike) and Choplifter, Megacopter: Blades of the Goddess is a lot of fun if you love fast-paced shoot 'em up action.

Time to choose your fighter? Steam's Fighting Games Fest is now live and will run through July 22nd so you can get some delicious discounts.

Teeth-clenching stealth, followed by tactical hardcore gunplay for those not looking for a quiet way in. Intravenous redefines challenging stealth-action and will keep you on the edge of your seat!

Another nice win for people who love hitting challenges, as RetroAchievements support has now been added to Dolphin for GameCube.

I'm a total sucker for over the top action, especially when you're tearing down hordes of enemies in whatever bullet hell / bullet heaven game comes along since Vampire Survivors kicked it all off. The next one I need in my life is SCAD.

After the Aleph One developer community released the first in the trilogy of Marathon on Steam, originally created by Bungie, they've now put up Classic Marathon 2.

Tall Story Games are working on another quality British point and click adventure game, with Heir of the Dog now on Kickstarter with a demo available.

Taking some inspiration from the excellent Noita perhaps, Infest brings the mechanic of destroying all the pixels and puts it into a deckbuilder.

VANpire Survivors. I know, I already did that joke before, but it's a good one. Pest Apocalypse is an upcoming chaotic horde survival game where you drive a vehicle to deliver pizza for hungry survivors.

Valve released multiple updates just recently including a Stable Steam Client update for all and another Beta release with fixes for Desktop and Steam Deck.

Need more retro shooting goodness in your life? How about a little more from Quake 1? The Immortal Lock is a brand new pack from modder ComfyByTheFire that's well worth a look.

TheForceEngine is an open source modern Jedi Engine replacement supporting Dark Forces, mods, and in the future Outlaws. A new release version 1.10.000 just rolled out.

After initially releasing on Steam as Enlisted: Reinforced back in March, it was quickly taken down but now it's back on Steam just as Enlisted.

If you're in need of a fresh set of games, you may want to hop over to Fanatical's Bundle Bash as they're putting out a new bundle every day this week.

Jackbox Games are soon to release The Jackbox Megapicker, which is basically a launcher that shows all their games so you won't need to keep switching between packs for all their different games.

Ah hell, here we go again. Hello Games just released another massive free update to No Man's Sky with Worlds Part I out now.

From game devs to movies and all sorts, Blender is a truly incredible bit of free and open source tech and it has evolved a lot with Blender 4.2 out now.

A little heist on the go perhaps? Cyber Knights: Flashpoint from Trese Brothers is steadily turning into a favourite turn-based tactics game and now with all the controller improvements it should feel a whole lot better on Steam Deck too.
