New feature improves accessibility and management of free content, addressing developer and user concerns.

  • Steam's new 'Trending Free' tab consolidates demos, prologues, and free-to-play games in one place.
  • Valve aims to reduce clutter and improve visibility for indie games by separating free content from other lists.
  • Users can now add demos to their libraries without installation, write reviews, and receive notifications.
  • New rules prohibit linking to external websites and using images that mimic the Steam interface.
  • Changes are designed to streamline the storefront and enhance user experience with free content.
