Yes and no! To download games, updates, or use most of Steam Deck's online features, you'll definitely need a WiFi connection. However, once everything's all set up and downloaded, you can play your games offline no problem.

Just for downloads and online gaming! If you've got your games already, go ahead and enjoy them anywhere, WiFi or not.

Not always. Most games can be played offline once they're downloaded. I've traveled with mine and had no issues playing my pre-downloaded library on the go.

Absolutely need it for the full experience. Without WiFi, the Steam Deck just isn't the same.
