Yes, Resident Evil 4 Remake can be played on the Steam Deck, which is Valve’s very own handheld gaming. The handheld also has a high-performance output. Despite being a portable device, the Steam Deck has a custom AMD APU that is specifically designed for gaming, providing a superior gaming experience.
To achieve optimal performance, players must use FSR 2.0 Supersampling. This will apply less pressure on the handheld to provide mesmerizing details on the screen while giving optimal performance. Moreover, Steam Deck’s display is close to 720p and makes it easier to render.
