• Steam Deck Compatibility - 4 September 2026

  Hi everyone!Until It's About Pirates is officially Steam Deck Verified, I wanted to clarify what you can expect.The game should run well on the Deck! It has full controller support for gameplay and menu navigation.At Max settings I experienced solid performance: 60 FPS most of the time, with occasional drops into the 50s. For extra headroom or longer battery life, try reducing the quality level to Medium or turning off heavy settings like water reflections.If you notice any issues, please let me know.DiscordHave fun playing It's About Pirates on the go!
