Pages have been made wider, with support for higher resolution images and new viewing modes for trailers and screenshots. You&#8217;ll notice changes in the top carousel and in the &#8220;About the Game&#8221; section, where some new formatting options should make things look a bit more organized. The update just rolled out to the public after first being tested among beta users.<\/p>\n<p class=\"col-body mb-4 leading-7 text-[18px] md:leading-8 break-words min-w-0 charcoal-color\">With this update, pages have been widened to 1200 pixels, which Valve says &#8220;felt like a good balance where we can show more content on screen without overwhelming the page and making it hard to navigate.&#8221; There&#8217;s now the option of a large pop-up view called theater mode in the carousel, as well as full-screen mode. In addition to games&#8217; store pages, Valve has slightly tweaked the appearance of search results and recommendation pages to be wider, and made store hubs, Steam Charts and the News Hub look more uniform.<\/p>\n<p class=\"col-body mb-4 leading-7 text-[18px] md:leading-8 break-words min-w-0 charcoal-color\">You may also notice some more colorful backgrounds on games&#8217; store pages and in bundle detail pages. Where you won&#8217;t see changes yet, though, is the homepage. While Valve says it&#8217;s working on &#8220;similar adjustments&#8221; for the homepage, those aren&#8217;t rolling out with this update.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Store pages on Steam are looking a lot less cramped thanks to a new update.
