You may wonder whether Alan Wake 2 will be playable on the Steam Deck. The handheld console by Valve has made a name for itself in the gaming industry as it supports various titles, but can you play Remedy Entertainment’s most anticipated release on it?

Keep on reading this guide to find out all the details about Alan Wake 2, whether it is available on Steam, and if you can run the game on the Steam Deck.

Is Alan Wake 2 available on Steam?

Unfortunately, Alan Wake 2 will not be available on Steam. This is due to the fact that Remedy Entertainment had signed an exclusive partnership with Epic Games. Because of this, Alan Wake 2 will be available exclusively through the Epic Games Store. As such, Alan Wake 2 will not be able to receive verification on Steam Deck.

While Alan Wake 2 will not be available on Steam and isn’t Steam Deck verified, it is possible to play the game on the Steam Deck. For this, you will have to download the Epic Games Store launcher on the Steam Deck, sign in with your account to the Store and download Alan Wake 2 if you have purchased it.

One of the downsides to this method is that since the game is not Steam Deck verified, it is uncertain how it will run on Valve’s handheld console. Additionally, the system requirements for the game are also very high, even in the case of the minimum. So, the graphics settings will have to be tweaked quite a bit to make the game run properly on the Steam Deck.

It is unclear how long Alan Wake 2 will be exclusive on the Epic Games Store. But for now, this is the only way to play this Remedy title on the Steam Deck.

That is everything you need to know about Alan Wake 2’s compatibility with the Steam Deck. Make sure to check out our preview of the game as well as the Alan Wake hub for all things related to the game.
