Steam Deck – FAQ

Game Compatibility
Dead Island 2 is Playable on the Steam Deck and has been tested for smooth gameplay without significant bugs.

Cross-Play with Epic Games
Cross-play with Epic Games players is possible, but it may require some initial setup.

Font Size Adjustment
Note that font size adjustment is not supported in the game on the Steam Deck.

To help you navigate and resolve some common issues on the Steam Deck, we've provided a few useful tips:

Boot/Hang issue
There is currently a known minor emulation issue on Steam Deck that will likely cause the first launch of the game to stall on the Steam logo screen, after installing the prerequisites.

Simply close the game and relaunch, and you should progress past this and into the main menu. Our partners at Valve are looking into a fix for this.

Virtual Keyboard issue
“How do I access the keyboard to enter my account details on steam deck” – unfortunately, because of the way the popups work, we can’t bring up the virtual keyboard automatically, but all you need to do is press and hold the STEAM button, then press X and the virtual keyboard will appear.

The epic overlay is accessed by pressing L4, and controlled with mouse and keyboard input via the right trackpad.

I don’t have a epic account and I don’t want one. Can I still play the game?
