Steam Community Market Gets Bigger Listings, Search, and Filtering

The Steam Community Market has been a hub for the massive online exchange of in-game items for years, supporting the game economy for over 13,000 games with items available on the market. However, as the number of listings has increased, so has the users’ need for more detailed item listings, prompting Valve developers to enhance the capabilities of the Steam Community Market. In the latest beta launch, Steam is introducing larger and more detailed item listings, improved search functionality, better product filtering, and enhanced asset data.

Firstly, listings are becoming much larger with the expanded view, allowing a single listing to contain more images, longer descriptions, and even special notes for items with applied accessories and more. Users can now use the search function to scroll through the search results with a flip scroll.

Secondly, the Steam Community Market now utilizes all these added details to provide better filtering and much higher visibility for your listed items. Items will also have unique properties listed on their feature cards, making it easier to know what to look for. Finally, general improvements include new item pages that are wider and fill your screen better, while the price graphs now have the ability to group multiple datasets in a single view. Below, you can see some of these changes.
