One of the most anticipated changes is the ability for users to add their PC specifications to game reviews. This feature, long requested by the gaming community, allows reviewers to provide more detailed information about their system and help others determine compatibility.

Additionally, Steam users can now choose to anonymously submit their in-game framerate data, which Valve says will aid in improving game compatibility and the overall Steam experience.

The update also includes new notification settings for achievements, a more prominent message when selecting the 'Tools' filter in the library, and bug fixes reported by the community.

As part of its ongoing efforts to enhance accessibility and data collection, Steam has made various other improvements under the hood. Meanwhile, the company is also gearing up to expand into new gaming devices this year, including its highly anticipated Steam Machine consoles.
