Top 20 most played Steam Deck games in May 2026

May's Steam Deck charts are in. Slay the Spire 2 leads the month, with games like Vampire Crawlers, Stardew Valley, Forza Horizon 6, Subnautica 2, Diablo IV, Balatro, and Vampire Survivors also showing up in the top 20.

This list follows Steam Flow's May 2026 Steam Deck top 20 video. The video is embedded below if you want the full Steam Deck performance context.

May also had more movement than April. Forza Horizon 6 and Subnautica 2 reached the top five, and Librarian: Tidy Up the Arcane Library!, the original Subnautica, and Everything is Crab were part of the new batch in the top 20. Games like Stardew Valley, Balatro, Hades, and Vampire Survivors are still here too, so the list has a bit of both.

Below is the same ranking as DeckFilter game cards.
