Baldur's Gate 3 Enhances Steam Deck Experience with Native Port and Updates
Originally Published 3 months ago — by GamingOnLinux
Larian has released a native Linux version of Baldur's Gate 3 optimized for Steam Deck, promising better stability, faster load times, and smoother gameplay, while supporting Steam Cloud saves. The update benefits all platforms with improved streaming and reduced framerate spikes, but support for desktop Linux remains unsupported, requiring manual Proton use until a fix is implemented. The update includes numerous bug fixes across crashes, gameplay, audio, and cinematics, driven by passionate development efforts focused on Steam Deck performance.
