Key Points:
- Ubuntu has released an experimental Steam snap package for arm64 devices, bundling the amd64 Steam client with FEX emulation to enable better gaming performance on Arm architecture.
- This beta version is not an official Valve project, and users are advised to uninstall any existing Steam installations before trying it.
- Early testing on an Nvidia DGX Spark system showed significant performance improvements, including Cyberpunk 2077 running at over 200 FPS with DLSS enabled and smoother gameplay for other titles like Hollow Knight Silksong.
- The Ubuntu team encourages users to install the snap via the command "sudo snap install --candidate steam" and report any bugs or issues encountered during use.
- This initiative reflects growing support for Arm devices in gaming
