But they’d help Microsoft put Game Pass on Steam

While Game Pass isn’t available through Steam, you will be able to dual boot into Windows on the Steam Deck, meaning putting Game Pass on there yourself should be fairly straightforward.

We also spoke to Newell this week in the build up to the launch of the Steam Deck -which we’ve now reviewed. We asked him what he thought of the trend of consolidation in the games industry, which Microsoft are at the forefront of. He said thatconsolidation “must create value for customers.“He also told us thatpeople selling NFTs are “not people you want to be doing business with”, and many other things in ourfull Gabe Newell interview.
