Battle-tested stability
Thanks to OSTree technology, after every update the previous version of the operating system is retained on your machine. This means, should an update cause any issues, you can select the previous image at boot.
Additionally, images are retained in our repositories for ninety days and can be selected via the terminal. Nvidia driver update broke something you needed? No worries, rebase to the last known good release and pin it so that it's retained as long as needed.
Experience enterprise class security with out-of-the-box SELinux and Secure Boot support.
Run your favorite apps
No matter where from
With the power of the Flathub Linux app store, Distrobox with Prompt terminal, and OSTree, Bazzite is suitable as a traditional desktop operating system. It can run just about everything you could ever want - even that obscure and thanklessly maintained package on the AUR you've been using since 2002.
Bazzite is developed on Bazzite.
Use your favorite desktop environment
The latest and greatest by the KDE community, built from Fedora Kinoite. Valve's themes and customizations present in SteamOS come pre-installed.
A modern and beautiful desktop from the GNOME Foundation, built from Fedora Silverblue. This is a lightly customized GNOME experience optimized for both gaming and everyday use, with no tweaks that can't be easily undone if desired.
From your handheld to your home theater PC, Steam's game mode offers the premier console-like experience, and can be extended with community-developed plugins and themes thanks to Decky Loader.
Work with your hardware, not for it
Bazzite focuses on hardware compatibility out of the box, with full support for hardware video encoding and decoding, built in Nvidia drivers, extra HID drivers, and just about every udev rule you could need. Let your operating system work with your hardware so you don't have to.

Universal Blue has done its homework. Considering it's a non-official Steam OS it works surprisingly well and is fairly easy to install and set up.

Including Waydroid configured by default is a pretty interesting choice, could expand what you can do on Steam Deck rather a lot don't you think? There's a lot of things there making me quite keen to try it out on one of my Steam Decks.
