Don't forget, for older games like Diablo 2 that aren't directly supported on Steam, you might have to tweak Proton's settings or use a specific version of Proton to get things running smoothly. A quick Google search for the best Proton version for Diablo 2 should steer you in the right direction.

First off, you'll need to install Proton, a compatibility layer that lets Windows games run on Linux-based systems like the Steam Deck. After that's set up, simply download Diablo 2 through the Steam client, and it should run just fine. Proton does the heavy lifting!
