Wo Long: Fallen Dynasty is an action RPG from Team Ninja, creators of Nioh, modern Ninja Gaiden, and many more. It has several platforms including PC via Steam. But is Wo Long: Fallen Dynasty going to be on Steam Deck?
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 wonāt be on the Steam Deck handheld PC. āIt is Steam Deck unsupported,ā reads the developerās short and sweet answer. So when Wo Long launches, donāt 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 āunsupportedā does not mean āuntested.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 āThe game works great on Steam Deck, right out of the box.ā
- Playable ā āThe game may require some manual tweaking by the user to play.ā
- Unsupported ā āThe game is currently not functional on Steam Deck.ā
- Unknown ā āWe haven’t checked this game for compatibility yet.ā
So, by classing it as āunsupported,ā Team Ninja is saying that it simply wonāt work on Steam Deck. Could this change later? Itās possible, but if youāre planning on buying Wo Long: Fallen Dynasty just to play it on the Deck, donāt.
So, no, Wo Long: Fallen Dynasty is currently not going to be on Steam Deck.
