Update 7:20pm ET: I’ve tested out the ‘bleeding edge’ beta Elden Ring Steam Deck update myself and the game now runs at a super smooth 30fps (and even above in smaller areas if you turn off the FPS lock). Also, be on the lookout for my Steam Deck review on MobileSyrup in the coming days. Thankfully, FromSoftware has added several quality of live improvements to Elden Ring that make the title easier for newcomers to get into, including simple fast travel, an overall slower pace and frequent save points (Sites of Grace).įor more on Elden Ring, check out Dean Daley’s in-depth look at the game.
In fact, I’m surprised I’m enjoying Elden Ring at all given my usual distaste for soulsborne titles and their extreme difficulty level. Given how much fun I’ve had diving into Elden Ring on the Steam Deck, I’m really hoping this update solves the game’s problems on the handheld (I may even give the ‘experimental bleed edge’ beta update update a shot).
The first batch of Steam Deck units started shipping out to customers last week. Given only developers and the media have the Steam Deck, Valve and FromSoftware have a short window to improve Elden Ring’s compatibility with the Steam Deck before it gets into the hands of consumers. Fixes for heavy stutter during background streaming of assets will be available in a Proton release next week, but are available to test now on the bleeding-edge branch of Experimental. The graphics team has been hard at work on optimizing ELDEN RING for Steam Deck.
“Fixes for heavy stutter during background streaming of assets will be available in a Proton release next week, but are available to test now on the bleeding-edge branch of Experimental.” “The graphics team has been hard at work on optimizing Elden Ring for Steam Deck,” said Valve employee Griffais in a recent tweet. According to a tweet from Valve coder Pierre-Loup Griffais, the company is already working on a fix for this issue.
