doesn't run Apex Legends On STEAM DECK

Because my computer is very old, I bought a Steam Deck to play games like Hogwarts Legacy, Horizon Forbidden West, and Avatar, relying on Steam for that purpose. Apex Legends was among the games I couldn't play, but was sure I could. Not being able to play a game that's even playable on Nintendo Switch on Steam's own console is really disappointing. I want a solution to this as soon as possible. I'm very happy with the device, but not being able to play the game I've spent the most hours on is truly frustrating. I've played this game for 672 hours on Steam and spent a lot of money on it. It's my most played game. I hope you'll look into this.

    I hate to be the bearer of bad news however here it is.

    Steam deck was blocked by EA and Respawn a while ago. In fact Steam Deck was never really supposed to be a way to play Apex as it was not supported. The reasoning behind the decision to block Steam deck was because to many people were using it as an unsupported work around to play the game and cheat as well. 

    Sorry to say but I think Steam Deck will remain blocked, at least for Apex.
