To get Epic Games running on your Steam Deck, you'll primarily want to install Heroic Games Launcher through the Discover Store, which is accessible in Desktop Mode. Heroic is an open-source alternative for the Epic Games Launcher, perfectly compatible with Linux and, by extension, the Steam Deck. Just switch your Deck to Desktop Mode, download Heroic from the Discover Store, log in with your Epic Games account, and voila, you're all set to install and play your Epic Games library.
Another neat trick if you're trying to play Epic Games on your Steam Deck is using Lutris. First, switch to Desktop Mode, then install Lutris, which you can easily find with a quick web search. From there, add Epic Games as a new source within Lutris. It takes a few steps, but it's another solid way to access your Epic Games without breaking a sweat.
