WWE 2k23 on the steam deck

[Majesty]

Guys I really hope that this game gets verified for the steam deck

[Matt]

Steam deck?

will i be able to play on steam deck

[Mark/Rampage]

You should be able to, game looks pretty much like 2k22, and I can play that on my steam deck. So 2k23 should be no problem. These are my 2k22 settings. https://sharedeck.games/apps/1255630

Though you have to play in offline mode for it to not crash unexpectedly every couple of minutes. I'm hoping that's fixed this year.

lol i just ended up buying a new windows pc for the first time of 1x years ...

was hoping the steam deck + its steam OS can complete replace windows gaming platform sadly it just cant yet
i have stood my ground and only use macOS + geforce now for gaming until wwe2k22 and wanted to get into VR gaming

It certainly would be great if it played well and withoug crashes on the Steam Deck.
WWE 2k22 performs great on the Steam Deck under Steam OS when it doesn't crash. Unfortunately, it crashes randomly and often (during menus, during matches, during loading, etc.), especially if you were connected to the internet.

WWE 2k19 works without issues on the Steam Deck, though. I hope WWE 2k23 will do so as well.

anyone tried to see if its compatible yet?

I am transfering it, downloading to my deck as we speak. I downloaded it to my PC first and with the beta you can transfer it from pc to deck.

Main reason I wanted to get it on PC as well was more mods and the portability of the steam deck. 22 worked fine myself, so I figure 23 should and heres hoping maybe it will be more supported.

Yeah that is why I decided to do it that way figured it would be quicker, at least there is the option to do that. Back with my laptop I would transfer it over via the network easy between two windows PCs but wasn't sure how to do it for windows to linux (steam deck) but if you have the beta then it can be transferred though the system itself. It is kind of slow, but still faster than downloading it straight.

It is at like 40gbs out of the 70gbs and I started it maybe like 15-20 minutes ago. So I think by 12:45 should be done.

let me know how it runs and if you experience crashes and if you use proton experimental to make it work lol

Seems to be working pretty decent, similar to 22, was able to play a one one one match between Orton and Madcap Moss and after he match Jey Uso jumped me. Going to be going to bed soon... I was using just the default proton settings.

At first I did have issues where it was like running in slow motion, but I forgot my deck was still set to refresh rate of 40 and stuff to conserve battery, but when I removed that and set it back to 60hz it was working flawless.
