What is it?

PS5 Dashboard is a Decky Loader plugin for the Steam Deck and other handhelds running SteamOS. It replaces Steam's Game Mode home screen with a PS5-style layout: a row of square tiles, a large selected game with its key art, and a Play button with info cards beneath it.

The info cards show time to beat from HowLongToBeat, your total playtime and recent sessions, Steam review score, Metacritic and installed size, and achievement progress with the latest unlocks. The plugin also repaints Steam's blues, greens and greys in PlayStation blue and deep cool greys, and restyles menus such as Quick Access into a dark rounded panel.

Settings are available in the Quick Access panel, including accent colors, focus style, corner radius, the HowLongToBeat lookup and an option to hide Steam's own home-page sections. Interface text follows the language set in Steam.
