Steam is a popular gaming platform that allows gamers to purchase and play games. Some of the games that are available on Steam include Counter-Strike, Dota 2, and many more. To ensure that your game will run on the Steam Deck, you first need to make sure that your game is compatible with the Steam platform. This can be done by checking the compatibility information for your game on the Steam website. Next, you need to make sure that your game is installed on the Steam Deck. This can be done by going to the steam website and searching for your game’s name in the search bar. Once you have found it, click on the “Install” button and follow instructions. Once your game has been installed on the Steam Deck, you next need to make sure that it is running correctly. This can be done by going to its main page and clicking on its “Settings” button. There, you will find a list of options related to its performance. You can check whether or not it is running at all by clicking on its “Running” tab and looking at its results. If everything looks good, then you can finally play your game! However, if there are any problems with it or if it isn’t running correctly, then please let us know so we can help you out!
The Steam Deck is set to launch soon. Valve is testing every game on the Steam library to get ready for the release to see which games will work with the company’s portable PC. It has made it easy to look at the games you currently own and see which ones you can take on the go.
To find out which games you can run on Steam Deck, you need to visit the Your Library on Deck page.
Once there, scroll down a bit and click “Sign In.”
From there, you’ll need to enter your Steam login information and go through the two-factor authentication process (if you have it enabled on your account).
Once logged in, you’ll see your Steam library broken up into a few categories. At the top is “Deck Verified Games From Your Library.” Below is “Deck Playable Games From Your Library.” Next is “Unsupported Deck Games From Your Library.” Finally, you’ll find “Untested Deck Games From Your Library.”
Verified games have been thoroughly tested by Valve to run properly on the Steam Deck with no extra interaction on your part. Playable games will work but might require extra effort on your part. Unsupported games won’t work at all. Lastly, untested games are those Valve hasn’t tried yet, which means you’ll have to try them yourself to see.
Valve says it “is reviewing the entire Steam catalog on Deck,” so more games will be added to each section as the company can put them through their paces (there are a lot of games on Steam).
There are a few reasons games won’t run on the Steam Deck. Some could be compatibility issues with Proton and SteamOS. For others, could be an issue with the controls. For example, a game could be completely built for a mouse and keyboard, making playing it on Steam Deck impossible.
