It should be soon, however.Ī few hours after the keynote, a Google representative posted on the Chromebook community forum to say that the alpha will, in fact, hit the dev channel "soon." The rep noted that "a small set of Chromebooks" would be eligible, but no other details were given. Steam on Chrome OS is not yet available for testing. While it may have seemed like a low-key announcement for Steam on Chrome OS, which Google hasn't updated the public on since announcing the Valve partnership in 2020, it turns out that Hartrell misspoke. But at the time, as many noticed, there was no alpha or new information there.
I hope the public build of this rolls out on the App Store and Google Play soon.Google yesterday said that the "Steam on Chrome OS" alpha had launched, but it turns out that Steam on Chromebooks isn't actually ready for testing.ĭuring the Google for Games developer summit keynote yesterday, Google product director Greg Hartrell said, "The Steam alpha just launched, making this long-time PC game store available on select Chromebooks for users to try." He encouraged people to visit the Chromebook community forum for more information. The Android beta is available via Google Play beta testing here. If you’d like to help test the new Steam Mobile beta, you can join the group here and access the TestFlight build on iOS here (note that this is currently full but Valve will be adding more slots). This new app update will include the current features and also QR code sign in, smarter notifications, improved Library support, and multi account support. Valve even pokes some fun at the current version of the app in the announcement. This new update to the app has been rebuilt on a new framework with a modern design. A few days ago, Valve finally announced that a new Steam Mobile app is in beta testing with it being available to try out on Android and iOS (this is currently full right now). On iPad, I just use the website in Safari instead of the app which is even worse to use on bigger screens. I only have it installed for Steam Guard authentication while logging in. It basically still feels pretty bad to use. Following its release back in 2012, we’ve seen Steam Mobile (Free) get a few updates to improve the app visually and slowly add new features.
