Some good news for fans of 2 big AAA games that have had some issues on the Steam Deck! Both Forspoken and Midnight Suns have received updates in the last week that tackle improvements to performance and stability on the Steam Deck!

Forspoken Update 1.02:

Midnight Suns Jan 2023 Update:

General

  • General performance improvements
  • General stability fixes

Steam Deck:

  • Steam Deck Virtual Keyboard fixes
  • Steam/Deck/Link save fixes, including cloud syncing

There was also some reports of Deadpool not showing up if you had purchased the DLC, so a follow-up update from Firaxis fixed this!

I think it is fantastic to see these improvements for huge games like these! We will be redownloading and testing them again to see just how much better the games have gotten on Deck, but I would consider this very exciting regardless!
