How Do You View All of Steam’s Adult Only - Sexual Games and Content?
To force Steam to show you all games content, including adult content and sexually explicit content, you’ll need to make the following change to your store preferences. To do this sign into your Steam account, then click on your Profile name in the upper right-hand corner. This will open a new drop-down menu where you will need to click Store Preferences.
On the new page that displays, you will see a full list of Store related options, most of which will be enabled by default. However, there is one option under the Mature Content heading called Adult Only Sexual Content that is unticked. Tick this box if you are okay seeing games that contain sexual content that is explicit or graphic and is intended for adults only.
While you have store preferences open, make sure you scroll down a little further and check the following setting as well: COMMUNITY CONTENT PREFERENCES. Which blocks user-generated content that may not be appropriate for all audiences. If you want a fully uncensored Steam, you’ll need to make sure both of these boxes are also unticked.
After you have made the changes, you can exit store preferences and start searching Steam for adult only content. If at any stage you need to hide adult content again, simply return to the same place and untick the boxes. You can also use the Ignored Products and Tags to Exclude options to block any content or content types you don’t want to see on Steam.
