Valve似乎正在致力於使Steam遊戲文件更容易在電腦之間傳輸，DSteamdb創始人thexpaw在Steam中發現了一些與P2P下載相關的代碼可以通過局域網傳輸Steam文件。
P2P網絡通常用於通過Ad Hoc連接來連接節點，這類網絡可以用於多種用途，各種檔案分享軟件已經得到了廣泛的使用，P2P技術也被使用在類似VoIP等實時媒體業務的數據通信中。一個簡單的例子是，該功能可以用於將Steam遊戲從PC下載到Steam Deck，速度要比正常下載快的多。
據PC Gamer報道，目前已經有程序員在Steam開發者版本中實現了這一操作，只是目前效果還不穩定，有的時候會連不上，可能V社還需要進一步調試才會正式將該功能發佈上線。
Valve seems to be working on making Steam game files easier to transfer between computers. Dataminer and SteamDB creator Pavel Djundik has spotted lines in the Steam API that indicate that the ability to transfer Steam downloads over LAN might be coming soon. While its uses aren’t immediately obvious, players with multiple gaming systems that use Steam will find the new feature useful. A good example is that this feature can be used to download Steam games from a PC to a Steam Deck without having to worry about keeping the handheld system running for too long. Valve recently hit a new landmark with concurrent Steamusers hitting an all-time peak of just over 30 million users. Earlier this year, the all-time peak sat at around 28 million. Steam has also released a new version of its client beta that allows users to make use of the Steam Deck’s implementation of the Big Picture Mode UI on their PC. The new UI brings an improved home screen, and quick access to multiple options through controller shortcut keys. A good example would be downloading games on Steam Deck directly from your PC instead of the internet. If it will read installed game on disk, that should also avoid the decryption step for each chunk. — Pavel Djundik (@thexpaw) October 27, 2022
