How to Record a Video on Steam
To record a video on Steam, you'll want to use the Steam Overlay. While in-game, press Shift + Tab to bring up the overlay, then click on the 'Screenshot' button for photos. For videos, though, Steam itself doesn't have a built-in video recorder. You'll need to use third-party software like OBS (Open Broadcaster Software) or Nvidia's ShadowPlay if you have an Nvidia GPU. Just set the game you're playing as the source in OBS, and start recording!

Steam doesn't actually have its own video recording feature. So, grab an app like OBS or use the built-in Game Bar in Windows 10/11 (Win + G) to capture your epic moments!
Actually, for quick clips, you might want to use the built-in feature in Windows鈥擥ame Bar. Just hit Win + G while in your game. It's not Steam, but it's seamless and easy.
