A Valve spokesperson has confirmed that Steam’s Big Picture mode will be replaced by the Steam Deck’s user interface. Big Picture mode is Steam’s version of a console-like user interface: It can be navigated using a controller, and was pretty slick back when Steam Machines were still possibly going to change the console landscape (spoiler: they didn’t). To say that Big Picture has grown long in the tooth is maybe an understatement, as it hasn’t received a major refresh since 2015.
Queried on whether the Steam Deck UI will replace Big Picture in the Steam forums, a Valve moderator, austinp_valve, answered in the affirmative. “Yes, we are replacing Big Picture with the new UI from Deck,” reads the message. “We don’t have an ETA to share yet though.”
