Steam Launcher is another Windows 8 software tool aimed at Windows 8 users

There are already several ways to pin your Steam games to Windows 8’s Start Screen and launch them with just a single click, but Steam Launcher is by far the easiest to use. And the most affordable, that is.

Although it doesn’t boast the same feature-rich package as Pin Steam, this new tool is available for free and lets you create tiles on the Start Screen to easily launch Steam games.

It does lack some important customization features, but developers claim that future versions will include custom tile images, Steam friends support and dedicated tools to show game news on the launch page.

Of course, it supports both x64 and x86 versions of Windows 8, but it also offers support for ARM devices, although Windows RT is yet to support Steam games.
