    Valve is changing how Steam picks games for its front page, rollout set for early 2027

    Valve announced it will change how games get discovered on Steam during sales and promotions, moving from a manually curated calendar of fixed front-page slots to dynamic, personalized recommendations based on user preferences and purchase history. Valve said preliminary experiments produced up to 10 times as many games appearing per day in the Discounts & Events section, with measurable increases in store page visits and wishlist additions. Valve has paused curated placements in Weekend Deals, Midweek Deals and Daily Deals, and the change is set to roll out in early 2027.

    Crimson Desert's First Major Paid DLC Delayed Two Weeks for Polish

    Pearl Abyss has delayed Crimson Desert's first major paid DLC, Charting the Unknown, from October 15 to October 29. The $25 expansion adds seafaring, home building, and new quests and storyline, and the studio said it needs more development time for a more polished and stable experience. The studio had previously shipped patches and updates rapidly after the game's March 2026 release and renamed it Crimson Desert Enhanced in August to consolidate 17 patches and content additions.

    Valve updates Steam's Discount & Events section toward dynamic, personalised listings

    Valve is updating Steam's Discount & Events section, moving from manual, calendar-based placements to a more dynamic and personalised system to improve discoverability. Valve said the shift lets it display ten times more games daily and has produced increases in store page visits, wishlists and cart additions, with the new system to be fully implemented in early 2027 and new tools coming for developers. Hooded Horse CEO Tim Bender said the section, once weighted toward best-selling games, is now showing indie titles with under a hundred to a few thousand reviews, with some small games going from near-zero visits to a few thousand.

    Xbox's disc-to-digital rollout opens to all users

    After testing with Insiders, Xbox opened its disc-to-digital program to all Xbox users on September 29, letting most Xbox Series X and Xbox One physical discs claim a digital license. A Kotaku test with Injustice 2 showed a new Claim digital license option in the game's app menu, and playing the game also claims the license automatically. Xbox 360 and original Xbox games are not supported, some publishers have not joined, and a fan-made list suggests at least 1400 games are compatible; the author advises keeping the discs even after digitizing.
