Just think of Proton Experimental as the 'beta version' of Valve's Proton tool. Use it to try out the latest tweaks and updates for running Windows games on Steam Deck.

You can test new updates and fixes with Proton Experimental before they鈥檙e included in the main Proton releases. I've used it to get some games running that didn't work before!

Proton Experimental is how Valve tests new builds of Proton with more recent improvements. If you want to stay ahead of the curve, give it a whirl!
