The title running on the Steam Deck should not come as a surprise.It should as be noted that the game isn’t the only PlayStation franchise on PC, as both Horizon Zero Dawn and Days Gone are already available on the Platform, with Uncharted Legacy of Thieves coming soon. However, none of the aforementioned franchises have as rich a handheld history as Kratos.It will undoubtedly be interesting to play the title on Steam Deck and see how the game performs and looks on the Handheld device.
