The Steam Deck is pretty robust and can play a vast majority of PC games since it's essentially a handheld PC. However, compatibility depends on the game's system requirements and whether they've been optimized for the Steam Deck. Most games work fine, but there might be a few exceptions, especially with titles that require more powerful hardware or are not compatible with the Steam Deck's Linux-based SteamOS.

Nope, not all. Some games require more juice than the Steam Deck can provide or just aren't compatible with its OS.

I've had my Steam Deck for a few months now, and honestly, I'm blown away by how many PC games I can play on it. Sure, not every game works, but the majority of my Steam library is perfectly playable. For the few that aren't, there are workarounds and updates happening all the time.
