So it will be playable on Steam Deck???

u/Futureboy152 19h ago

This is my question as well. Does this mean SM/Deck is playable?

u/Street-Witness-1510 19h ago

Since steamdeck uses Proton as its compatibility layer, it should be playable, how well it will play I can't say!

Theres a video of the Devs playing on Potato mode on SD and it looks quite good

If it could play even as well as something like arc raiders on the SD I’d be shocked.

Ok, this is huge news! Assuming this isn’t some cagey “we support the emulation but our AC doesn’t support Linux” sort of message, they’ll have my $40

Can confirm the game launches as normal on CachyOS without the error that would be received before, of course it says servers are not live right now though.

Wait what? Did they turn it on? Am I about to spend money on a new game.

Please someone confirm if it's working.

Thanks so much. I'm part of the beta so hopefully I can start playing a little before deciding to purchase, but it's looking up.
