Steam has long been the benchmark platform for PC gaming, and one of the reasons for having become it is – in addition to the times of offers and its extensive catalog – the great versatility it gives users to use. For that reason, in this tutorial we are going to assume that you have a PC, that you have Steam, and that you obviously have games in your Steam library to be able to play them on the Smart TV (and beware because not all of them are compatible ). to TV to do it. Do you want to know how? Coming up next, we tell you. KitGuru Says: I currently use an iPhone and an Apple TV, so I won't be able to try out the Steam Link app just yet.Almost all Smart TVs come prepared to install the Steam Link application , but even if not, there are different methods that will allow you to play Steam games on your PC on a Smart TV , and that without having to physically connect the PC. The app will support up to 4K/60fps streaming, but Valve expects 1080p/60 to be the best performing option and the standard quality you should expect from most games. Currently, the app is limited to streaming over WiFi or Ethernet, so if you happen to have an insane LTE data plan, you won't be able to use it for game streaming just yet. The Steam Link Android beta is live on the Google Play Store starting from today. The app will support the Steam controller, in addition to other gamepads.

Valve still recommends a 5GHz wireless connection, or an ethernet connection for optimal performance. Eventually, Valve released a Steam Link app for select Smart TVs and now, that same functionality is heading to iOS and Android. The original Steam Link was a dedicated streaming box that you would plug into your TV and connect a controller to. The final version of the app doesn't have a final release date yet, but if you're on Android, then you can download the beta now. The app will allow you to stream your Steam library to more devices than ever before, ranging from smartphones and tablets, to Android TV boxes or the Apple TV. Last week, Valve announced the next step for the Steam Link, opting to release it as an app for iOS and Android.
