To play Game Pass games on your Steam Deck, you'll need to install Windows first since Game Pass requires the Xbox app or browser, which are only available on Windows. After installing Windows, download the Xbox app or use a browser to access Game Pass, log in, and start playing your games. Remember, this might affect Steam Deck’s native SteamOS performance and features.

Honestly, just install Windows on that bad boy (the Steam Deck, I mean). Game Pass needs the Xbox app or a browser that supports it, and SteamOS isn't gonna cut it. Sure, it's a bit of a hassle and kinda goes against the whole 'Steam' idea, but if you gotta have your Game Pass fix, that's the way to do it.

Don't bother, just keep your Game Pass for your PC or Xbox. The beauty of Steam Deck is its optimized SteamOS and the massive library of Steam games. Mixing it up with Windows just for Game Pass seems like overkill and a bit of a step back, if you ask me.
