Valve just dropped a 'Great on Frame' category on the Steam store and it's packing a grand total of four games, which screams launch prep louder than a Discord ping at 3 a.m. Portal 2, Into Black, Aperture Hand Lab, and The Lab are the current lineup, with the Valve-published titles getting the Verified stamp while Into Black sneaks in as the third-party wild card. Spotted by X user SadlyItsBradley and covered by PC Gamer, the tag mirrors the 'Great on Deck' system, hinting that FrameOS on the upcoming wireless VR headset is about to greet users with a ready-made storefront page.

Shipments are stacking up too—multiple containers of 'game consoles' and VR gear have hit US warehouses, totaling tens of thousands of kilos, and Valve straight-up confirmed a summer release window for both the Steam Frame and Steam Machine in a Steamworks dev update. The hardware runs SteamOS on Snapdragon silicon with standalone play and foveated streaming tricks, so these early tags are testing x86 builds on the ARM device already. Community chatter on X and Reddit notes the thin start but points back to how Deck launched with a slow burn before exploding.

Whether the category means full VR optimization or just solid 2D fallback mode is still fuzzy, but the timing lines up perfectly with summer delivery promises. Valve's not rushing a bloated list—they're building the foundation one Portal throwback at a time.
