With today being the first day of May, we can finally see the most popular games to play on the Steam Deck throughout the last month. There was a chunk of new games to check out from April, and some surprises I didn't see coming:

Top 20 Most Played Games on Steam Deck for April 2025
April 2nd - May 1st

Compared to last month's list, we have a couple of changes:

New Games Added:

  • The Elder Scrolls 4: Oblivion Remastered
  • Blue Prince
  • Schedule I
  • DAVE THE DIVER
  • Deep Rock Galactic: Survivor

Games That Left:

  • Monster Hunter Wilds
  • Split Fiction
  • Fields of Mistria
  • The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt
  • Hades 2

While I am not shocked to see Oblivion Remastered get on the list, I am still a bit surprised to see it at the number 2 spot. It hasn't been out for long, shadowdropping at the end of April, and it almost beat out Balatro. I am overjoyed to see Blue Prince on the list, as well as Schedule I, and the new Yakuza DLC seems to have worked in bringing Dave the Diver into the limelight.
