In the past, Valve released a few modest updates for Steam Deck, but the customers felt that they weren't sufficient to address the irksome stability and glitch issues.
With the advent of the SteamOS 3.4 patch, the video game maker has reportedly finally released a significant upgrade for the handheld system, according to a report by XDA Developers.
Players may now understand the performance and security enhancements in the game, according to Valve. The current update's stability fixes are also addressed by the corporation.
The update includes desktop upgrades, performance profiles, performance setting tweaks, and more, according to Steam's official website.
