The Short Answer Is No, Wo Long: Fallen Dynasty Is Not Going to Be on Steam Deck

Team Ninja has confirmed in a FAQ about the game that the game wonā€™t be on the Steam Deck handheld PC. ā€œIt is Steam Deck unsupported,ā€ reads the developerā€™s short and sweet answer. So when Wo Long launches, donā€™t expect to be able to run it on the Steam Deck.

Even though Wo Long: Fallen Dynasty is unsupported, might it run anyway? Basically, no. Yes, there are ways of getting unsupported games to start up on Steam Deck, but it may not be worth the effort. Why? Because ā€œunsupportedā€ does not mean ā€œuntested.ā€ According to the official Steam Deck page, there are four categories as far as Steam Deck compatibility goes.

Those categories are as follows:

  • Verified ā€” ā€œThe game works great on Steam Deck, right out of the box.ā€
  • Playable ā€” ā€œThe game may require some manual tweaking by the user to play.ā€
  • Unsupported ā€” ā€œThe game is currently not functional on Steam Deck.ā€
  • Unknown ā€” ā€œWe haven’t checked this game for compatibility yet.ā€

So, by classing it as ā€œunsupported,ā€ Team Ninja is saying that it simply wonā€™t work on Steam Deck. Could this change later? Itā€™s possible, but if youā€™re planning on buying Wo Long: Fallen Dynasty just to play it on the Deck, donā€™t.

So, no, Wo Long: Fallen Dynasty is currently not going to be on Steam Deck.
