top 20 most played Steam Deck games April 2026.
April 2nd - May 1st

New Games Added:

  • Vampire Crawlers
  • RACCOIN
  • Graveyard Keeper
  • Vampire Survivors

Games That Left:

  • Resident Evil Requiem
  • Resident Evil 2
  • ARC Raiders
  • Hogwarts Legacy

This is a fantastic group of games, and I am overjoyed seeing it. Vampire Crawlers and RACCOIN deserve spots on this list, and Graveyard Keeper's free giveaway time clearly made a dent in how much it was played on the Steam Deck. It's sad to see Resident Evil Requiem and ARC Raiders disappear, but Vampire Survivors made a return, and that's awesome.
