9 big things Steam needs to improve in 2026

72% of developers perceive Steam as having a functional monopoly in the PC gaming landscape. Competing platforms like the Epic Games Store and Xbox App have not matched Steam's user experience. Suggestions for improving Steam include adding a "currently playing" section in the library, separating achievements for base games and DLC, streamlining the DLC acquisition process, enhancing mod support in Steam Workshop, improving wishlist organization, and making SteamOS available for all PCs.

Geoff Keighley denies he’s hiding Half-Life 3 in his Steam wishlist, posts a screenshot to prove it, nobody believes him, and I’m starting to wonder if he’s just messing with us

Geoff Keighley, host of The Game Awards, sparked speculation in the gaming community with a tweet that included a single emoji and encouraged followers to check the nominee page for #TheGameAwards on Steam. He revealed that he had only one game on his wishlist, which is called Dadlympics, a multiplayer game combining dad jokes with physics-based antics, released in September 2024. The game had a peak concurrent player count of six. Keighley added Dadlympics to his wishlist on November 18, the day after the speculation began.

Barring a new Baldur’s Gate, my most anticipated D&D game just narrowed down its launch window, so get planning your class

Solasta 2 is set to enter early access in the first quarter of 2026, specifically between January 1 and March 31. The game will feature over ten hours of gameplay, a maximum level cap of four, and will allow players to create a full party using the character creator. On launch day, six classes (Wizard, Sorcerer, Paladin, Fighter, Rogue, and Cleric) and four ancestries (Human, Elf, Dwarf, and Halfling) will be available, with multiclassing options. Tactical Adventures plans to expand the class roster to include all classic tabletop classes by the full 1.0 launch. Co-op multiplayer functionality will also be introduced during early access. The game will retain the 'ready action' mechanic from the original Solasta, and a supporter pack with optional cosmetic items will be available at launch. A free demo is accessible for players to experience the game ahead of its release.
