In October 2026, 1,821 of the 3,661 games released on Steam (49.7%) carried Valve's generative AI disclosure. In January 2024, the month Valve announced its AI disclosure rules, the count was 17. Across all years, 16,777 released Steam games now carry the disclosure, 11.5% of the 145,918 games SteamDB lists as released.

Year Games released on Steam With an AI disclosure Share
2023 14,015 178 1.3%
2024 18,426 2,196 11.9%
2025 21,210 4,675 22.0%
2026 (to 3 Nov) 24,055 9,416 39.1%

The monthly table below shows the share rising almost every month. The rise is steep in 2026: the share went from 28.7% in January to 49.7% in October, and October's 3,661 releases are the most of any month since January 2024. That happened even though, in January 2026, Valve narrowed the form so developers no longer have to disclose AI used only for efficiency, such as coding assistants.

The first three days of November (168 of 275 games) are too few to read anything into.

Two things to keep in mind. These are self-reported, so the true numbers are higher. And a disclosure covers anything from an AI-generated store capsule to a game built almost entirely from generated assets, so the count says how many games use generative AI somewhere, not how much.

What this meant for players at October's Steam Next Fest, and the calls for a filter, is in Nearly half of new Steam games now disclose AI.

Methodology

Both counts come from SteamDB's release statistics, read on 3 November 2026: all games released on Steam in each month, and the games released that month that carry SteamDB's "AI Content Disclosed" tag. SteamDB applies that tag automatically when Steam's generative AI disclosure statement appears on a game's store page, whether the AI was used in the game or only in its marketing. The share is worked out, not copied: AI-disclosed games ÷ all games released that month, to one decimal place. November 2026 covers 1–3 November only. The counts are a floor, because disclosure relies on developers reporting their own AI use, and since January 2026 Valve has not asked developers to disclose AI tools used only behind the scenes, such as coding assistants. Monthly figures can shift slightly as developers add or remove a disclosure after release; we refresh the table monthly.
