How to get New World to work on Steam Deck
Honestly, while the Steam Deck is a powerhouse, not every game is going to play nice with it out of the box. New World, being as graphically intensive as it is, might need some settings tweaks to get running smoothly. Lowering the graphic quality and ensuring the game is running on the latest version could help. Also, patience is key; some games might need a patch or two from the developers to work perfectly.

Good luck, just pray to the gaming gods. Sometimes that's what it takes with new tech.
First up, make sure your Steam Deck is updated to the latest software version. Sometimes, compatibility issues are just a matter of not being on the current update. Then, go to your Steam settings and ensure that Proton is enabled. Proton allows you to play games that aren't initially designed for Linux (which the Steam Deck runs on). New World should, in theory, run smoothly after these checks. If you still encounter issues, try adjusting the game's graphics settings to better suit the Steam Deck's hardware capabilities. Lastly, don't forget to restart your Steam Deck after making these adjustments. A good old reboot tends to work wonders.
