An
update from Valve outlines the progress on supporting anti-cheat software on its upcoming Steam Deck portable computers. Word is there will be native support for two largest such services, Easy Anti-Cheat + Proton and BattlEye. This lessens the likelihood of players getting caught cheating with their decks in their hands:
Our team has been working with Epic on Easy Anti-Cheat + Proton support over the last few months, and we’re happy to announce that adding Steam Deck support to your existing EAC games is now a simple process, and doesn’t require updating game binaries, SDK versions, or integration of EOS. Alongside our
BattlEye updates from last year, this means that the two largest anti-cheat services are now easily supported on Proton and Steam Deck.
