Dota 2’s inclusion among the most played games on Steam Deck has come as a surprise to fans

Dota 2 has made it onto the list of top games on Steam Deck, ranking 73rd and surpassing the likes of the original Dark Souls and Horizon Zero Dawn. Fans were surprised to see the MOBA being played on the handheld PC, speculating whether players are using keyboards and mice with the device. Some humorously remarked that the only role dominating at these ranks must be the carry.

The most popular game on Steam Deck remains Elden Ring, followed by Stardew Valley and the card game Balatro in the top three. The complete ranking can be found on Valve’s website.

In recent updates, Dota 2 received version 7.36c, featuring balance adjustments to heroes and items, along with bug fixes. More details are available in our news coverage.
