00:00:00.258 --> 00:00:02.400
(light upbeat music)

2
00:00:02.400 --> 00:00:04.170
- [Narrator] The Steam Deck is a powerful,

3
00:00:04.170 --> 00:00:05.520
portable gaming PC

4
00:00:05.520 --> 00:00:08.970
with access to an enormous
library with thousands of titles.

5
00:00:08.970 --> 00:00:11.400
Every month, parent company
Valve releases a list

6
00:00:11.400 --> 00:00:13.680
of the top 10 games played on the Deck

7
00:00:13.680 --> 00:00:15.780
ordered by hours played.

8
00:00:15.780 --> 00:00:17.160
Here now in ascending order

9
00:00:17.160 --> 00:00:22.020
are the top 10 Steam Deck
games played in April, 2023.

10
00:00:22.020 --> 00:00:24.736
Coming in at number 10 is Hades.

11
00:00:24.736 --> 00:00:27.819
(light upbeat music)

12
00:00:29.520 --> 00:00:33.363
Number nine, a new entrant
into the top 10, Dredge.

13
00:00:35.040 --> 00:00:36.510
Our own Ashley Bar-Dhan

14
00:00:36.510 --> 00:00:39.870
was a fan of how this horror
fishing simulator's mechanics

15
00:00:39.870 --> 00:00:42.390
turned cozy elements found in other games

16
00:00:42.390 --> 00:00:44.703
into something far more sinister feeling.

17
00:00:46.680 --> 00:00:47.670
Personally,

18
00:00:47.670 --> 00:00:51.540
I find that its spooky
fish tetris gameplay loop

19
00:00:51.540 --> 00:00:52.950
lends itself perfectly

20
00:00:52.950 --> 00:00:55.410
for playing while out and about.

21
00:00:55.410 --> 00:00:59.760
Coming in at number eight, Cyberpunk 2077.

22
00:00:59.760 --> 00:01:02.550
Holding its number seven
spot from last month

23
00:01:02.550 --> 00:01:04.423
is Grand Theft Auto V.

24
00:01:04.423 --> 00:01:07.950
(light upbeat music)

25
00:01:07.950 --> 00:01:12.163
Also returning at number
six, Red Dead Redemption 2.

26
00:01:12.163 --> 00:01:14.580
(light upbeat music)

27
00:01:14.580 --> 00:01:17.070
We may have to start calling
this section of the list

28
00:01:17.070 --> 00:01:18.956
the rockstar two-step.

29
00:01:18.956 --> 00:01:21.720
(light upbeat music)

30
00:01:21.720 --> 00:01:24.630
At number five, we have
another top 10 newcomer,

31
00:01:24.630 --> 00:01:26.763
Resident Evil 4, remake.

32
00:01:27.960 --> 00:01:30.780
I mean, come on, shooting
ganados on the go?

33
00:01:30.780 --> 00:01:32.790
What's not to love about that?

34
00:01:32.790 --> 00:01:35.325
At number four, Stardew Valley.

35
00:01:35.325 --> 00:01:38.190
(light upbeat music)

36
00:01:38.190 --> 00:01:40.320
Creator ConcernedApe confirmed this month

37
00:01:40.320 --> 00:01:42.060
that there will be a 1.6 update

38
00:01:42.060 --> 00:01:44.223
which will add new content into the game.

39
00:01:45.300 --> 00:01:48.210
What would you all like to
see added in the next update?

40
00:01:48.210 --> 00:01:50.493

41
00:01:50.493 --> 00:01:54.180
(light upbeat music)

42
00:01:54.180 --> 00:01:57.723
Numbers three on the most
played list, Hogwarts Legacy.

43
00:01:59.010 --> 00:02:01.950
A two-month run at the
top has come to a close,

44
00:02:01.950 --> 00:02:06.333
but hey, the good news is it's
now safe for arachnophobes.

45
00:02:08.130 --> 00:02:11.377
Always appreciate a hat tip to
the best Harry Potter movie,

46
00:02:11.377 --> 00:02:13.290
"The Prisoner of Azkaban."

47
00:02:13.290 --> 00:02:14.340
Don't at me.

48
00:02:14.340 --> 00:02:15.660
(light upbeat music)

49
00:02:15.660 --> 00:02:19.710
Now for this month's
runner-up, rise tarnished.

50
00:02:19.710 --> 00:02:23.533
It's Elden Ring, once again
at the number two spot.

51
00:02:23.533 --> 00:02:24.960
(Mohg roaring)

52
00:02:24.960 --> 00:02:27.866
That's right, Mohg, Lord of Blood.

53
00:02:27.866 --> 00:02:31.260
FromSoftware's open world
action RPG masterpiece

54
00:02:31.260 --> 00:02:34.260
has finished at the very
respectable number two slot

55
00:02:34.260 --> 00:02:36.240
for the third month running.

56
00:02:36.240 --> 00:02:39.210
The lands between have
never been better to visit.

57
00:02:39.210 --> 00:02:40.710
Book your flights now.

58
00:02:40.710 --> 00:02:42.330
Coming in at number one.

59
00:02:42.330 --> 00:02:44.220
Wait, do you hear that?

60
00:02:44.220 --> 00:02:45.423
My God, could it be?

61
00:02:46.260 --> 00:02:50.763
That's the music for Vampire Survivors?

62
00:02:51.690 --> 00:02:53.910
Wow. They've done it, folks.

63
00:02:53.910 --> 00:02:55.080
Rising out of their coffin

64
00:02:55.080 --> 00:02:57.060
from the number four spot last month

65
00:02:57.060 --> 00:02:59.940
to stake Hogwarts Legacy
through the the heart

66
00:02:59.940 --> 00:03:01.410
and reclaim their crown

67
00:03:01.410 --> 00:03:04.950
as the number one most
played game on Steam Deck.

68
00:03:04.950 --> 00:03:06.510
Drac is back, babes,

69
00:03:06.510 --> 00:03:07.950
and it stands to reason

70
00:03:07.950 --> 00:03:10.830
that we have the new
tides of the Foscari DLC

71
00:03:10.830 --> 00:03:13.008
to thank for this triumphant return.

72
00:03:13.008 --> 00:03:14.940
(light upbeat music)

73
00:03:14.940 --> 00:03:15.960
There you have it.

74
00:03:15.960 --> 00:03:18.993
