Sekiro no longer launches on Steam Deck for me

[bumblebeezack]

Updated Steam Deck's firmware as prompted and basically Sekiro now won't launch. It'll say launching executable, shows a brief white screen and then it'll crash to the Steam App...

i have the same problem. do you find an issue ?

I have the same issue. Started an hour ago.

I think there's nothing much we can do. I tried different protons, beta and preview channels and a reset (long overdue anyway) but nothing works. So i suggest waiting it out.

I have the same problem. Game does not launch.

[bumblebeezack]

I was asking on Reddit and u/asht1 gave this solution and it worked for me. I can now successfully launch the game and load the previous save.

-Enable advanced update channels in developer options.
-Choose OS Update Channel Beta and Steam Client Update Beta.
-Restart.
-System - Check updates. Update and reboot

This operation helped launch Sekiro, but somehow the saves from the cloud weren't downloaded... Strange thing

I have the same issue after the system update.
Even though I changed the Proton GE, it still no work.
Turn on the game, white screening, and crash.

same here, tried everything with no avail.

Update about me! It restarted for me without me doing anything. Some update come in.

The only way I could get it to work is install this game on the main drive of the deck. Tried the other options, but this is the only thing that worked for me.

Seems to be working fine now.
