Some "Chromebooks" to offer alpha version of "Steam" store image
Game developer Valve is off to a pretty head start in 2022. The company's first portable gaming PC, the Steam Deck (starting at $399), received positive reviews around its launch in February. Now, the company's popular online gaming store, Steam, is now available on new devices. The terminal is a notebook PC "Chromebook" equipped with Google's "Chrome OS". In a presentation ahead of the Game Developers Conference next week, Google announced that it would offer an alpha version of Steam on select Chromebooks. I will explain in detail in an upcoming blog post. 9to5Google reported earlier that Steam would likely only work with higher-priced, high-performance Chromebooks. Still, the move shows that Google is expanding its efforts to take gaming more seriously, even on low-end laptops. Google has also expanded support for its game-streaming service Stadia, adding an easier way to play game demos.
