Valve Reveals Dynamic Cloud Sync Feature for Steam Deck

When Valve’s Steam Deck releases next month, the handheld device will offer a new Dynamic Cloud Sync feature that will allow users to shift save data between devices fairly easily. Essentially, when using Dynamic Cloud Sync, the player’s progress on Steam Deck will automatically transfer to the cloud when the system is put in sleep mode. Announced in a blog post earlier today, the feature will not be available in all games; according to Valve, developers will have to manually enable the option in Steamworks. Otherwise, users will be prompted to exit the software on their Steam Deck when they open the game on PC, or start from an older save file.
