It’s time to come out of the den and explore a few more rooms of the house.

Heading to the living roomâ€"or anywhere there’s a big screenâ€"is Steam’s soon-to-be-released big-picture mode, offering simple, easy-to-read navigation designed specifically for TV. With full controller support, big-picture mode will let gamers kick back and enjoy their favorite games on the biggest screen in the house.

Steam’s big-picture mode doesn’t require any additional development from you. Just ensure your game works well with a controller, and we’ll take care of the rest. And don’t worry, keyboard and mouse aren’t going anywhereâ€"users will be able to switch between input devices at any time.

This revolution will be televised.
