While we did review One Piece Odyssey on the Steam Deck, there is little doubt that Naruto X Boruto Ultimate Ninja Storm Generations will have issues running on the Deck according to the specs posted to their Steam store page. There isn't any for the new Sword Art Online game, but we would be surprised if it had a ton of trouble.

Each of these games have a Steam store page where you can wishlist them in anticipation for their release. Naruto doesn't have a confirmed date yet, but Sword Art Online will be released on October 5th and One Piece Odyssey is already out!
