Bethesda announced it today at Earthquake Steam Deck is now a verified title. The famous id Software’s 1996 game has also been designated handheld optimized for Xbox ROG companion devices. As one of the OG boomer shooters, Earthquake It still has a large and passionate fan base, and is now available on almost every gaming platform imaginable.
Since launching its verification program, several thousands of games have been designated as supported for the Steam Deck. Valve has recently been preparing to run additional gaming devices on its SteamOS platform. Even though Xbox ROG Ally is now exclusive, a special extension of verification already exists to note whether a title is more widely compatible with Steam’s operating system. And let’s not forget that Valve’s anticipated Steam Machine is due out sometime early this year, so it wouldn’t be surprising to see those verification checkmarks start to weigh more in 2026.
