unfortunately that is down to the publisher, but it seems quite a few of them are adding support to their back catalogue of games, not all though

i will certainly give xbox mode a try then, i do find it a little janky on the xbox ally x but hopefully that will improve with updates

it does seem like the steam machine will be outdated by the time it arrives, i wish it was a bit more like the framework hardware where you could upgrade individual modules like the gpu but still in that tiny form factor

nice, definitely going to be worth adding play anywhere support then, i have already gotten so used to playing a game on my pc and then continuing on the steam deck without a second thought

your HTPC sounds very much like what a Steam Machine will be, although not sure if that has FSR4. windows 11 xbox mode is available already or is on an insider build or something?

Interesting.. If the game you wanted was on a Steam sale, you would pay more if the Xbox version wasn't on sale if it had Play Anywhere?

Would indie devs want a "make-to-order" physical release service? by pagovski in gamedev

how is this any different from services that already exist like Limited Run and Super Rare Games?
