Steam reviews get major boon with new hardware specs-sharing system

In recent years Valve has expedited the rate at which they introduce new features to their ever-popular Steam platform, with previous updates introducing a new UX; an overhauled library sharing with family, Steam Deck optimisations and much more. As part of Steam’s latest Beta Client update, users can now directly attach their PC’s specs to any reviews published for added clarity and context.

Making the official announcement, the team at Valve confirmed that the latest Steam Client Beta introduces a brand new option for players when writing reviews for games – adding “the option to attach hardware specs when writing or updating a Steam User Review on a game's store page.”

While certainly a small feature, its implications could be major, with potential buyers of games now having much more context to work with when it comes to statements of performance issues pointed out in reviews.

Many players, especially on PC, will go to Steam when looking at reviews for games, with the platform being a particularly strong place to go for a wide variety of opinions. Of course, with PCs each person’s experience can differ – especially when it comes to performance – and so being able to contextualise a player’s review with their hardware specs will be highly appreciated and welcome.
