The update aims to make game discovery easier by refreshing each section with clearer information. The \"Featured \u0026 Recommended\" section now shows why a game is being recommended, such as regional ranking or play history, along with a summary of user reviews. Hovering over a game icon plays a short trailer. A new permanent section for wishlisted games and owned games' DLC that are on sale has been added, previously only available during major seasonal sales. The \"Personal Calendar\" feature, which had been in test implementation since October of the previous year, is now officially implemented. It displays recommended new releases and upcoming games based on play history in a list format, covering the past month, past week, and next month. Users can filter by tags and toggle wishlist items. The \"Discovery Queue\" has also been updated to allow browsing without leaving the home page. The \"Popular Upcoming\" tab now more accurately reflects highly anticipated new releases. Other minor changes include improved controller support and store personalization settings for motion sensitivity.","whyItMatters":"The permanent addition of a sale-focused wishlist section and a personalized calendar shifts the Steam Store from a static marketplace toward a dynamic, user-specific discovery tool, potentially changing how users find and buy games outside of major sales events.","webCardHtml":"\u003cp\u003eThe \"Featured \u0026 Recommended\" section now shows the specific reason a game appears, such as \"Ranked #X in your region\" or \"Recommended based on your play history,\" alongside a user review summary like \"Very Positive.\" Hovering over a game icon plays a short trailer, and adjacent titles in carousels now show previews.
