Steam Year in Review 2023 is live — here’s how to see your Steam Replay

Add as a preferred source on Google

Steam introduced Steam Replay last year for the first time, and it’s back again for 2023. As we close out the year, you get a chance to look back at a bunch of stats for 2023, similar to Xbox Year in Review and PlayStation Wrap-Up. Here, we will show you how to see your Steam Year in Review for 2023.

The wrap-up includes a ton of detail, from what games you’ve played to how many achievements you’ve unlocked. Steam Year in Review is only live for a limited time, but you can download and share your review while it’s running, as well as add it to your Steam profile so you can see it throughout the next year.

If you open the Steam app now while you’re logged in, you’ll see a banner ad for Steam Year in Review. Click on it, and you’ll see your review. Valve will likely replace this banner when the Steam Winter Sale starts on December 21. If you’re looking for your Year in Review after that point, you can find it by heading to the following URL and logging in: https://store.steampowered.com/yearinreview.

By default, the review is set to private, but you can make it public and share it on other platforms (we’ll show you how to do this shortly). At the bottom of the review, you’ll also find a link to last year in case you want to check up on what you accomplished then.

Similar to last year, you’ll automatically receive a badge for viewing your Steam Year in Review. Valve doesn’t tell you that there’s a badge, but you’ll see it pop up in your inventory after checking out your Year in Review alongside your other badges.

If you use Steam a lot, these badges are a big deal. They contribute to the XP of your profile and increase your XP levels in your Steam profile. Thankfully, you don’t need to do anything special for this badge. Just check out your Year in Review, and you’ll get it automatically.

How to share your Steam Year in Review 2023

By default, your Steam Year in Review 2023 is private. Only you can see it. At the top of the page, however, you can change the privacy settings to Friends only or Public. Doing so will allow you to copy and share a link to your review by using the Share button. You can also share your review on your Steam activity feed on this page.

Valve also offers three quick mock-ups for sharing on other platforms — a square format for Instagram feeds, a tall format for Snapchat and TikTok, and a wide format for X (formerly Twitter) and Facebook. To use these, click the Share button at the top of your review and select the format you want. Then, select Save image. You can change the language of these mockups at the top of the page, as well.

Finally, you can add your Year in Review to your Steam profile as a featured showcase. To do so, click the Share button and select Add profile showcase. Note, you can’t add a showcase or copy a link to your review if it’s set to private.

How Claude helped my 65-year-old dad finally ditch his handwritten ledgers
AI has a lot to answer for, but this one small win is hard to argue with, at least for me.
Claude app on iPhone

My dad has owned a small business for as long as I can remember, and for just as long, he's kept his books the old-fashioned way. Every sale gets written down by hand so he can file his taxes later. The problem is that his accountant needs this data in Excel, and my dad, who didn’t grow up around computers, has never learned how to use it.

For years, his workaround was paying someone to manually type his handwritten entries into a spreadsheet. It worked, but it was adding additional cost to his business, which he wanted to avoid, but couldn't.

AI’s energy tax was already concerning. Research says AI agents are over hundred times worse
AI agents could consume 136 times more energy than today's AI, study finds
AI agents

The AI industry's soaring electricity demand has already become a growing concern for governments, utilities, and technology companies. But a new study suggests the next generation of artificial intelligence could make that problem significantly worse.

Researchers from the Korea Advanced Institute of Science and Technology (KAIST) have published what they describe as the first comprehensive analysis of the energy cost of AI agents - AI systems capable of reasoning, planning, and completing tasks autonomously. Their findings show that these systems can consume up to 136.5 times as much energy per query as conventional generative AI models, raising fresh questions about whether the infrastructure supporting tomorrow's AI is ready for what's coming.

If there's one thing that has disrupted consumer tech economics over the last year while changing how we understand and recommend products, it's the ever-rising cost of memory and chips. 

The desperate need to scale up AI infrastructure has pushed major manufacturers to prioritize enterprise demand, leaving everyday consumers with far fewer choices. Those available cost significantly more than they did a year ago.
