Virtually all games on your Steam library should run on the Steam Deck, thanks to its compatibility with Proton, a tool that allows many Windows-exclusive games to work on Linux (the Steam Deck's operating system). However, performance will vary depending on the game's demands and optimization. Steam even has a 'Deck Verified' program that highlights games fully compatible and optimized for the Steam Deck, including smooth gameplay and readable text.

Most games do, but check the 'Deck Verified' section on Steam for a sure bet. These games are tested and confirmed to work well on the Steam Deck.

It's hit or miss. Plenty of games work, but some AAA titles might give you trouble. Always check reviews and the Steam Community for the latest compatibility updates.
