Yes, you can play PC Game Pass games on your Steam Deck, but it's not as straightforward as playing Steam games. You'll need to install Windows on your Steam Deck first, since Game Pass requires the Windows OS to work. After that, download the Xbox app from the Microsoft Store, and you're good to go!

Technically, yes, but prepare for a bit of a setup process. Steam Deck runs on SteamOS by default, so you'll need to switch to Windows first. Once you've got Windows running on it, just install the Game Pass app, and dive into your Game Pass library.

I've done it! It takes some effort to install Windows, but after that, Game Pass works like a charm. Totally worth it for the access to both libraries.

Nope, it's not worth the hassle. Just stick to Steam's massive library.
