    Steam Deck Beta Client Update: January 16th

      We have just shipped an updated Steam Deck Client to the Preview/Beta channel.

      General

        * Fixed regression causing certain client popup browser windows failing to load.

      Steam Input

        * Analog Trigger Output is made available in the Trigger Mode select screen for better discoverability.

        * Joystick Mode settings: Added "Response Axis Style" to "Stick Response Curve" options. The Response Curves can be applied in a "Per Axis" or "Circular" fashion. Previously, Joystick Mode only supported "Per Axis" response curves. Generally, Circular is recommended, and is now default. The option will only appear when relevant - when "Stick Response Curve" is not set to "Linear".
