The leak that was shared, of course, did not come out of nowhere. As we know, game developers get a developer kit before consoles are officially released. Thus, the developer of Bloody Spell also obtained a developer kit. The developer, who decided to share the interface of steam deck’sdeveloper kit, first posted the video on a platform called Weibo, but it was later shared on Reddit.
Steam Deck developer kit interface leaked
When we take a look at the shared video, we see that the game does not work so well optimizedly. While Valve’s handheld console is still a little more time away, developers will need to follow a separate optimization roadmap for the Steam Deck. Also, some developers who make statements about steam deck seem quite satisfied with the device. The Bloody Spell team also said that they need to perform some optimization and debugging tests to achieve excellent performance.
With the leaking of the Steam Deck developer kit interface, we now know what kind of interface the handheld console will have. In addition, the shared video also highlights some elements of the device, such as the performance (not the Final version) and the gameplay experience. Steam Deck’s success will lead to some changes in the gaming world. We have also seen some explanations that if the device is truly successful, some companies (Ubisoft) that have withdrawn from Steam will return.
