Valve Is Reportedly Working On A Steam Update That Lets You Hide Your Sex Games
No longer will you be haunted by the hours you've spent playing HuniePop 2: Double Date.

Deviants, rejoice! After 20 years of limited privacy settings, Valve appears to be rolling out a new feature that will allow Steam users to hide what games they play.
SteamDB creator Pavel Djundik, a noted Steam data miner, was the first to discover the reported update, and took to X (formerly Twitter) to share a photo of what the process of hiding a game looks like.

According to Djundik's post, once a user marks a game as private, it will be hidden from their friends, thus permitting them to play Koikatsu Party to their heart's content and far away from prying eyes. That said, this feature isn't limited to games with, ahem, adult themes. For those ashamed of just how much time they poured into Dota 2 or Baldur's Gate 3, hiding your hours spent playing will soon be a few clicks away.
This rumored update is a drastic improvement to Steam's current privacy options, which essentially boil down to setting your profile to public, friends only, or private. Djundik also stated that Valve is working on new parental controls as well. These additions will reportedly allow users to set playtime restrictions for children, as well as prevent children from purchasing something without requesting permission first.
It remains to be seen when Valve will rollout the update, or if it includes any additional features or quality-of-life changes. The news comes shortly after Valve added a new two-factor verification system to Steam following a large scale malware attack.
