It has always been a magnanimous twinkling when Microsoft initiated possing its games exclusively on Steam instead of Microsoft and the Xbox store. It wasn't all games at the time, but under the current scenario, it seems to go quite in that direction. Bethesda divulged ditching its own launcher and liberating everything on Steam. The issue over Microsoft,s Game Pass that attracted millions of subscribers was supposedly running it out on its own app.

In a fresh statement by Valve CEO Gabe Newell expressed about a potential competitor to Xbox Game Pass, in accordance to steam as a result players will be able to download it directly from Steam storefront. Newell aforesaid Game Pass is something that must be done for the community and revered to get it up on Steam.

Its accents like "Steam Pass" subscriptions arent going to be spotted anytime in the near future. But it comes over with a prospect that Microsoft's Game Pass will be available soon enough, with precedents like EA, EA Play game subscriptions that had been addon since 2020. Game Pass will feasibly be trickier and deliver different versions than what's released on Steam predominantly, which poped issues as a matter of fact.

Game Pass on Steam will eventually opt for fresh subscriptions, aforesaid CEO of Xbox, Phil Spencer about new steam deck and Linux-based handheld. Either way, Steam Deck is not completely ready yet as AMD and Valve are correspondingly still working over compatibility for the Steamboard installation.
