Another week has passed and, according to Steam’s official Steam Deck top 100 chart, Elden Ring continues to be the most-played game on Valve’s handheld gaming console. No Man’s Sky is the biggest mover (38 places up) and Slay the Spire is almost into the top 5.

It’ll come as no surprise to hear that the ever-popular Elden Ring continues to be the number one most-played game on Steam Deck. The game’s new Shadow of the Erdtree DLC landed just over a month ago and was an instant hit amongst fans of the game – albeit with some backlash from gamers who considered it a little too difficult.

Despite that being the case, the game topped out at just over 780,000 players after the DLC launched, with many of those players likely coming from the Steam Deck community.

Biggest movers in this week’s Steam Deck chart

Notable movers in this week’s Steam Deck top 100 have been No Man’s Sky (up 38) and Slay The Spire (up 4) – both of which are recipients of attractive 60% price reductions. The deals are still live now so if you were looking for a new addition to your library, with both setting you back around the $20 mark.

No Man’s Sky is the biggest mover of the week, jumping up 38 places to third in the weekly chart. Despite it having a 60% offer right now, it’s the new World’s Part 1 update that has increased the popularity of the game. The massive 5.0 update is a complete overhaul of the game, with a bunch of new and exciting features that have fans of the game purring.

Dave the Diver is the biggest loser in this week’s charts, with the game dropping 4 places down to 9th. Fallout 4 also runs the risk of falling out of the top 10, sitting in 10th place and down 3 spots.
