Steam's new feature makes moving game files from PC to Steam Deck super easy.

Valve has rolled out an update to the Steam client that'll allow you to copy game installations between PCs

It's already pretty easy to move a game file between two PCs under one roof, but to do so would mostly require a large enough SSD or HDD to house the entire game installation directory, or instead using Windows LAN settings to transfer the files. The first option is not so bad for a couple of compact indie games, but make it a Call of Duty or Flight Sim Valve's making that process much easier with its latest Steam client update, which takes the featureto the public build.

Saves pushing my 4G internet connection to its absolute limits just to redownload the same files again, anyways.When you ask Steam to download a game, it will now perform a check to see if any local network for devices running Steam already have the game files installed. If found, Steam will begin a file transfer process to move the files to your device, instead of starting a download from Steam's online servers.

Off - this client will not look for or allow local game file transfers. It will not download from or transfer to any other PC connected to your LAN.

Wes plays a little bit of everything, but he'll always jump at the chance to cover emulation and Japanese games.\n\nWhen he's not obsessively optimizing and re-optimizing a tangle of conveyor belts in Satisfactory (it's really becoming a problem), he's probably playing a 20-year-old Final Fantasy or some opaque ASCII roguelike.
