The company said the game runs on the device but does not support the headset\u2019s native resolution. Valve has confirmed the Steam Frame will launch sometime this summer.<\/p><p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Valve\u2019s compatibility notes state Portal 2 uses the Steam Frame\u2019s default controller configuration, displays controller icons correctly, applies default graphics settings that perform adequately, and shows readable interface text. The Playable rating reflects that the title operates on the headset while lacking full native-resolution support.<\/p><p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Steam Frame uses higher per-eye resolution than Valve\u2019s older Index headset, moving from 1,440 \u00d7 1,600 per eye on the Index to 2,160 \u00d7 2,160 per eye on the new device. The headset can also run games in standalone mode without a connected PC. Valve\u2019s compatibility check for Portal 2 focused on standalone operation; compatibility when the Steam Frame is connected to a PC will depend on the user\u2019s hardware, which Valve does not test.<\/p><p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Valve has integrated Steam Frame compatibility labels into the same system used for Steam Deck and the recently added Steam Machine rating. In that system, games are tested on the hardware and given one of three ratings. &#8220;Unsupported&#8221; indicates a game is effectively unplayable on the device due to missing support, incompatible anti-cheat, or controls that do not work. &#8220;Playable&#8221; indicates the game runs but may show issues or lack some features. &#8220;Verified&#8221; indicates the title functions as intended on the device.<\/p><p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Valve did not provide a specific release date for the Steam Frame beyond the summer window.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Valve rated Portal 2 Playable for the Steam Frame headset, saying the game runs but does not support the device&#8217;s native resolution.
