First, you'll need to install and set up Battle.net on your Steam Deck. Add Battle.net as a non-Steam game and then download Overwatch 2 from there. Boom, you're ready to dive into some hero action!

First off, gotta love the Steam Deck's versatility! To get Overwatch 2 up and running, you're going to want to use the Proton compatibility layer that Steam provides. Here's a quick rundown: Boot up your Steam Deck, head over to Desktop Mode, and launch Steam. Make sure you have Proton enabled in your Steam settings. Then, just search for Overwatch 2 like you would for any game on Steam, purchase if necessary, and hit install. Keep in mind, Overwatch 2 isn't natively supported on Steam Deck, so performance might vary. Happy gaming!

Okay, here's the deal: Install Battle.net using Steam Deck's Desktop mode. Add Battle.net as a non-Steam game in Steam. Then just install Overwatch 2 through Battle.net! Easy peasy.
