How Is Ghost Of Tsushima On Steam Deck? | New Gameplay Today

Ghost of Tsushima, specifically the Director’s Cut, is out on PC today. It’s a fantastic game that should be welcomed with open arms as it makes its way to a new platform, but we were specifically curious about how it performs on Steam Deck. The game is not Steam Deck verified primarily because certain features are not supported on Valve’s handheld, or other comparable mobile PC game platforms. However, the offline content (the single-player campaign and the expansion) has been specifically adjusted to play well on Steam Deck. You can read port studio Nixxes Software explanation here. And spending a little time with the game shows that the single-player campaign does, in fact, play well on Steam Deck. It’s not without its shortcomings – a high-end PC or a PlayStation 5 are still the best ways to play the game – but Steam Deck appears to be a great way to play the game if that’s your only option or you want a portable version.

You can check out some gameplay with commentary from myself and Wesley LeBlanc below.
