Pete and Steve are joined again by Max Wright to discuss the rumor that Valve is Porting Steam Deck UI to VR, Proton GE 7-39's release (and what that means for Overwatch 2), and how the Steam Client Beta has added a Big Picture Mode Auto-Launch Setting that basically lets you turn your PC into a console.

This week we saw the discovery of two new toggles in the "Main" build of SteamOS which confirms that VRR and the ability to disable v-sync is coming to Steam Deck!
