Wuthering Waves is not currently compatible with Steam Deck consoles, but the developers are actively working to resolve its compatibility with the device. While it has no official support, players may still attempt to run the game on their SteamOS devices, albeit with some issues.

Is It Playable on Steam Deck?

Wuthering Waves Steam Known Issues

Unable to Run on LinuxOS

Players running Wuthering Waves on Linux devices may find that the game fails to launch due to its Anti-Cheat system. Unfortunately, there is no definitive solution at the moment, and any resolution will likely depend on Valve or the game's developers.

Mixed Performance on SteamOS devices

Similar to Linux users, players attempting to run Wuthering Waves on SteamOS devices, such as the Steam Deck, may encounter issues due to the game’s Anti-Cheat system.

This problem appears to have been resolved following the Version 2.4 phase 2 update on July 3, 2025, but players should still exercise caution when running the game on both LCD and OLED versions of the handheld console.
