Valve Finally Lists Deadlock on Steam, But You Still Can’t Get Easy Access

For weeks, tens of thousands of players have been finding their way into Deadlock, an all-new competitive shooter developed by Valve. Despite that fact, the tech titan hadn’t ever acknowledged the existence of the game and was operating under a policy of blanket silence. Now, the company has connected itself to Deadlock in a remarkably minor way – by publishing a Steam listing that links Valve to the hero shooter as both the developer and publisher.

Not only that but the official Discord server for the game received a message from an admin updating the state of play for streamers and those neck-deep in the closed playtest.

, a brand-new competitive shooter with hero mechanics and a lot of hype. In the last few weeks, the game has pulled in tens of thousands of players, with the peak concurrent count hitting more than 40,000 users – which is higher than some recently released shooters…

Aside from a brief animated teaser, there’s not much to take away from the Steam page for Deadlock. There’s almost nothing in the way of technical specifications or product patter, and all-in-all, it’s a very ‘underwhelming’ announcement from Valve.

Here’s the message that was posted by the Discord server’s admins to reflect this step up from Valve:

We are lifting the rules for public conversation about Deadlock to allow for things like streaming, community websites, and discussions. Nothing else is changing with our state of development. We are remaining invite-only and contineu to be in an early development stage with lots of temporary art and experimental gameplay.

So, while a Steam listing now exists for Deadlock, you can’t access the game unless you’re invited by someone already testing the game. Perhaps this will change in the coming weeks.
