Valve<\/a> has been in the process of redesigning their Steam<\/a> Client for a while now. We heard the very first rumors at the beginning of the year which were followed by leaks confirming that the client is due for an update<\/a>. Now it seems even more clear that the update will be arriving soon as Steam sent out emails to developers asking them to submit their new artwork on their game pages in preparation for the Steam Library update.<\/p>\n

The new library update will change the way games are displayed by using new capsules. Moreover, according to steam, the new Library brings together a player\u2019s experience with a game and new content\/communications from the developer and community in a richer, more visual layout.<\/p>\n

Cheers.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
