More often than not, in our experience, games with unknown compatibility work on Steam Deck just fine, especially those with controller support. Besides, if you buy a game during the sale that either doesn’t work or has general issues on Steam Deck, Valve’s generous return policy of 14 days or two hours of playtime (whichever comes first) allows you to take a chance on a game without needing to worry about losing money.
Our list of the best Steam Deck deals in the Steam Winter Sale spans across a wide variety of genres. We’ve included 2023 indie darlings, must-play titles from previous years, and select AAA games that perform well on Steam Deck. This list is by no means exhaustive–there are a lot more fantastic deals up for grabs. For even more recommendations, take a look at our roundup of the best overall deals in Steam’s Winter Sale 2023.
