As part of Steam’s latest update to its platform, an integrated Notes app and a redesigned in-game overlay tool have been added. The new feature allows gamers to write thoughts and tasks about the game they’re playing and runs as an overlay, accessible across any logged-in PC and when playing games offline.

When overlaid on a game, pinned to-do lists can be adjusted for opacity, and guides, discussions, and other content can be clipped to the screen.

Further updates from Steam include a redesigned toolbar and overview. The new toolbar now features everything from chat to guides and is fully customizable. The game overview feature will also show a player’s achievement progress, gameplay stats of friends, and news about the current title.

Notifications have also received an upgrade, and there’s an in-game option for taking screenshots, which are sortable by the most recent capture, instead of per game.

The new features are currently only available through the Steam Client Beta. If you’ve never tried a Beta version before, the process is pretty straightforward. All you need to do is head to the settings (preferences if you’re a Mac user), click the Beta Participation change button in the Accounts tab, and select Steam Beta Update. Once you restart the Steam app, the Beta features will be visible.

Valve has pointed out that much development time has gone towards updating and improving code sharing between the Steam Desktop Client, the Deck, and Big Picture mode. The company notes that the upgrades should allow new features to roll out faster across different platforms.

Cyberdrone, a leading UAV display company based in Dubai, put on a breathtaking drone light show on Monday to honor two significant football milestones: AC Milan’s 125th anniversary and the one-year anniversary of Casa Milan Dubai.

The spectacle involved 1,000 drones working in perfect harmony to project AC Milan’s iconic imagery against the city’s night sky. Highlights included the UAVs synchronizing to form the club’s iconic crest, the signature red and black jersey, and a special emblem marking its 125th year. The intricate performance demanded meticulous planning, not just in terms of choreography, but also in dealing with the necessary permits and logistics.

The show also enhanced AC Milan’s regional presence, growing its fanbase through a cutting-edge, memorable experience. Drone shows are unparalleled in leaving lasting impressions, making them perfect for driving partnerships and growth”.

Greta Nardeschi, AC Milan’s Regional Director for MENA, echoed the sentiment, adding: “Collaborating with Cyberdrone for this 1,000-drone performance allowed us to connect with our fans in innovative ways. It gave us a unique opportunity to surprise and inspire audiences while elevating our Club’s visibility and that of our partners. Cyberdrone truly helped us take AC Milan to new heights”.

This groundbreaking drone display sets a new benchmark for the Middle East’s sports sector, which already contributes around $2.4 billion annually to Dubai’s GDP alone. Sporting events also generate $1.76 billion in revenues across the region, while the MENA’s entertainment sector, valued at $41.13 billion, is growing at 9.41% annually, driven by rapid technological advancements.
