Can you play Valorant on the Steam Deck?

Technically yes, but it's a bit of a workaround. Valorant isn't available on Steam as it's a Riot Games title, which means you can't download it directly from the Steam store. However, with some technical maneuvering involving installing Windows on your Steam Deck, you can run Valorant. Remember though, Valorant's anti-cheat system, Vanguard, might not play nice with this setup, so proceed with caution!

Yep, but it's kinda like fitting a square peg in a round hole. Gotta install Windows on the Steam Deck first, then download Valorant. But, fair warning, Riot's Vanguard anti-cheat system might throw a tantrum.

Nope, Valorant's not on Steam, so it's a no-go. Plus, even if you manage to install it some other way, the anti-cheat software is a buzzkill for such setups.
