Re: Apex Legends on Steam Deck

Running the game isn't the problem.

EA/Respawn not doing a grand total of  6 clicks in the developer's portal of their EAC software and thus enabling support for wine/proton (which the Steam Deck uses)

  • @EA_Atic , harder than for BattleEye games (for BattleEye you just send an email).

    Well anyways, is it on the TODO list? Steam Deck release is very soon.

  • not as easy as people think? Let me quote the dev.epicgames website 


    "To make it easy for developers to ship their games across PC platforms, support for the Wine and Proton compatibility layers on Linux is included. Starting with the latest SDK release, developers can activate anti-cheat support for Linux via Wine or Proton with just a few clicks in the Epic Online Services Developer Portal."

    Were days away from steamdeck launch and yet we still havent heard a peep about Apex being supported Via proton. 
    Are we to believe its so challenging to enable that it wont be ready for launch? 
    If so get ready for some dropped con-current player counts.
