Valve brings further QoL features to Steam

Throughout 2024, Valve has been consistently upgrading its Steam platform with a ton of new and highly welcome quality of life improvements. Following the likes of the family share revamp, a new screen recorder and much more, a new ‘Trending Free’ tab has been added to the store.

As noted by ResetEra user ‘AStrangerIsHere’ the Steam Store has gotten a small yet highly-welcome update, adding a new tab called ‘Trending Free’.

This addition solves a recent issue caused by the implementation of game ‘prologues’ – demos in all-but-name. As they were not labelled as demos, these free prologues would appear in the popular ‘New and Trending’ tab – muddying the results.

This recent simple fix will not only help to further declutter the store front, but also lets players more easily discover the games they want – or don’t yet know they want.

KitGuru says: What do you think of this most recent addition? Is it a welcome one? Did you run into any issues with prologues when browsing the store? Let us know down below.

KitGuru Games: Predicting the Next Half a Decade of Call of Duty Releases

Benjamin Franklin (1706-1790) famously once said: “The three absolutes in life are death, taxes and a new Call of Duty coming out every single year”. Sure enough, the US founding father has yet to be proven wrong, with Activision and a dozen studios having ensured that come the tail-end of any given year, there will be a new COD ready to release. And so, what can we expect from the franchise later this year? What about 2027, 2028 or even 2030? By looking back at the past two decades of Call of Duty games, their trends, progression and regression, I believe I can predict the next 5 years worth of annual COD entries.
