A HANDY REFERENCE FOR INDIE DEVELOPERS

Steam capsule sizes,
without the guesswork.

Use this as a quick reference while preparing your artwork. Dimensions were checked against Valve's Steamworks documentation on September 12, 2026. Valve can change these requirements; the official documentation is authoritative.

Three things dimensions cannot tell you

  1. Can you read the title at a glance? View the small version, step back, and check the logo against its background.
  2. Does the composition still work? Design separate assets for different aspect ratios. A landscape composition does not automatically work as a portrait capsule.
  3. Does the artwork follow Valve's current rules? Our checker does not inspect content, transparency or submission rules. Review the official requirements and the final Steamworks preview.
