SteamGridDB started in 2015 as a small website for people to host alternative Steam covers. Since then it has expanded into more asset types, and has grown into a large database with an API and an active community of artists creating high quality library assets for games both old and new. General info SteamGridDB Metadata is a provider for Playnite that leverages the SteamGridDB api to curate your artwork.
