Valve moves Steam Personal Calendar out of Labs
The release recommendation calendar now sits in the Steam Store, with no sponsored placements, according to gamesradar.com.
Valve released a Steam update on October 23, 2026 that makes the Personal Calendar a full part of the Steam Store, ending its run as a Steam Labs beta.
The Personal Calendar shows the next eight weeks of game releases that Valve's algorithms think a user may want. Users can set how many games appear in the calendar and filter by genre and theme tags.
Recommendations draw on playtime in the games a user plays most. According to gamesradar.com, Valve says the system is designed to avoid recommending the same genres and themes over and over, and that the calendar contains no sponsored placements.
Valve had previously introduced a beta for a feature called Personal Calendar through Steam Labs in 2025.
