Until now, of course.<\/p>\n<p data-cy=\"paragraph\" class=\"paragraph jsx-2269604527\">&#8220;What a week!&#8221; Valve declared. &#8221;Tis the season in many areas of the world for the &#8216;holiday&#8217; known as Black Friday, a time-honored tradition of deals on all sorts of things. We&#8217;re celebrating this &#8216;holiday&#8217; all week long with a <u>one-stop landing page for all of the games developers are offering on discount<\/u> throughout the week.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><output class=\"box-wrapper jsx-2673806401\" data-cy=\"article-video\"\/><\/p>\n<p data-cy=\"paragraph\" class=\"paragraph jsx-2269604527\">There is a fantastic range of games getting discounted, too, including 50% off <u>EA Sports FC 26<\/u>, 15% off <u>Battlefield 6<\/u>, a whopping 67% (6 7!) off <u>Risk of Rain 2<\/u>, 20% off <u>Helldivers 2<\/u>, 34% off the glorious <u>Blue Prince<\/u>, and 8% <u>Dead by Daylight<\/u>. <\/p>\n<p data-cy=\"paragraph\" class=\"paragraph jsx-2269604527\">You can also grab <u>Ghost of Tsushima<\/u> for 40% off the recommended retail price, a huge 75% off the wonderful <u>Red Dead Redemption 2<\/u>, and an even bigger 95% on <u>Warhammer: Vermintide 2<\/u>. <\/p>\n<p data-cy=\"paragraph\" class=\"paragraph jsx-2269604527\">That&#8217;s not all, either.

OK, well it\u2019s not that little, but it makes up for its bulky size with sheer power and Steam\u2019s seemingly endless library of software. For our Top 10 Steam Deck Games list, we wanted to set up a few parameters for our recommendations, including the kind of games it's capable of running, how well it runs them, and portability.&#10;&lt;br&gt;&#10;&lt;br&gt;&#10;Sure, you can run games like Vampire Survivors or Tunic on it, and we've sunk our fair share of hours into each, but part of the spectacle is that the Steam Deck can run huge triple-A games on the go. There are a few caveats, of course. Some of these games are pretty massive in file size or require an initial internet connection, and even some mild tweaking in the settings to get running well, but hey, it wouldn\u2019t be PC gaming without those things after all.
