Valve has attributed the delays to a significant increase in the number of game and page review applications in recent months. According to the company, many projects require re-review, causing some developers to miss their planned release dates.
The updated checklist now includes launching the game via Steam for at least five minutes, preparing achievements, and verifying necessary components, including DirectX and Visual C++. Valve is also developing other improvements to the build review process.
