Steam Enables Local Network Game Copying for Steam Deck and Other PCs

Valve has launched a new feature in its latest Steam and Steam Deck betas that allows users to transfer game files from one PC to another over a local area network. This feature is called local network game transfers, and it aims to help Steam Deck users who have slow internet connections or bandwidth caps. With local network game transfers, Steam Deck owners can bypass the need to connect to a Steam content server over the internet, which reduces internet traffic and lessens the time it takes to install games and updates.
