Steam launches new game recording feature for easy gameplay clips

Steam has introduced a new game recording feature that allows users to easily capture and save gameplay clips. This feature, called Game Recording, offers live playback and high-quality compression, making it more convenient than previous options like Nvidia Shadowplay. Unlike Shadowplay, which requires users to save entire video files, Steam lets players mark moments while recording continues. The clips are smaller in file size, with a 30-second clip at 1080p only taking up 43MB. Additionally, Steam records only game audio by default, reducing unwanted background noise. While Steam's recording feature has some limitations, such as being exclusive to Steam games and occasional bugs, it provides a user-friendly option for gamers looking to capture and share their gameplay moments.
