After a few weeks in beta, we have officially launched Indonesian language support on the full Steam client. Players can now switch their language preferences in both the Steam desktop client and mobile app to Indonesian language.

This update makes Indonesian Steam’s 29th core language to be added to the desktop client, store, community, and mobile app, which all include ongoing translation work to support the many special events, sales, promotions, and new features that Steam launches every year.

We’re always working to make Steam accessible (and enjoyable!) to as many people around the world as we can, and supporting different languages makes it easier for folks to find and play great games, write reviews, share community content, and chat with friends.

As we’ve worked toward this milestone, which included forming a team to translate over 500,000 words, we’ve also been encouraging game developers to bring the Indonesian language version of their games to Steam. As of today, we now have over 900 games on Steam that support the Indonesian language (also includes games that don’t have words and thus work in any language).

To switch languages in Steam, follow these instructions or watch the short video below.

You can also set additional language preferences within the Steam store, which allows players to more easily find games that are available in other languages. The primary selection (which follows the Steam client selected language) will determine the language used to display content in the store, while secondary or additional selections will allow recommendations and discovery of games that are available in additional languages.

The Steam mobile app itself by default will follow the language selected in the Steam client, but can also be updated independently in the mobile app itself if desired.

A new Steam client has been released and will be automatically downloaded.

Steam Stealth Fest is live now, celebrating sneaky games for an entire week! From now through July 31st at 10am PT, you'll find discounts, demos, and more on both current and upcoming games of stealth.

And we do mean all kinds of stealth. For some games, achieving your objective without being detected is the only way to succeed, while others offer it as just one of the ways to play. Either way, there's usually a benefit to being quiet and sticking to the shadows or tall grass.
