Can The Steam Deck Run Ratchet & Clank Rift Apart?

Ratchet and Clank Rift Apart brings one of PlayStation's best franchises to the PC. Of course it'll be great to see this run on a powerful PC at 4K with Ray Tracing. But we're here to see how the Steam Deck handles Ratchet and Clank Rift Apart

It runs smoother than Spider-man, and Spider-man ran great!

It's impressive to see a game like this running on a handheld, I'm not too keen on having a Steam Deck but I'll admit it's impressive.
I really hope the Nintendo Switch successor has hardware close to that of the Steam Deck, if Nintendo already makes masterpieces like Xenoblade 3 and Zelda Tears of the Kingdom with Switch hardware then imagine what Nintendo could do with such hardware .

I highly reccomed loading this game on your main drive assuming you have a 256gb model or larger. Putting the game on a SD Card or on the 64gb eMMc card puts you at a massive disadvantage in loading and stuttering. This game benefits heavily from being on a faster SSD like the one the 256gb SD has

It's also worth noting that Cryoutilities and Steam OS 3.5 give it slight performance bumps as well.

As a steam deck owner of my own that has played Spider-Man on it. I can confirmly say it definitely runs smooth by the looks of it


I'm planning on getting ratchet & clank real soon if I get the chance

Damn that's crazy amazing that you can play this game on a hand-held. I'd almost consider double dipping to play this on the go

Talked about ratched and Clank. What if the super Mario bros movie and the sonic movie were animated like the ratched and Clank movie?

[carlthewinner]

Awesome. I was hoping for 40+ FPS. But I am glad it runs well. :)

I don't mind the slowing down during the rifts.. it's not so bad. The blurriness, on the other hand, I don't like.. and the slowing down during combat. But I play on the standard settings, so maybe some tweaking and updates will do the trick. It's quite impressive how it runs day 1!

How does it handle mixing mouse and gamepad inputs? I like playing with gyro (I don't like mouse joystick so opt for mouse input in steam input). Do icons stay locked so they aren't automatically switching between gamepad and keyboard icons if the game does let you mix gamepad and keyboard inputs?

i wonder how ff16 will run on deck. If it's decent like this I bet next gen ports to the new switch will be perfectly fine since they will be properly optimised and I bet nintendo first party games will look amazing. i think we are reaching a point where power doesn't matter as much and game experiences aren't changing so they are easily transferable to weaker hardware, this is a good place to be at for a nintendo fan going into the launch of a new system.

this just makes me happy!
this game is sending a message that, While the PS5 loading times ARE impressive, it should never become a factor that holds a game back from running on other something more generic. what I'm seeing here, with the deck just makes me happy c:

Steam decks greatest feature is the option of adjusting the refresh rate internally from 30-60hz. You can set it at 40hz and have smoother gameplay. I hope the next switch system has variable refresh rate for devs to further optimize their games in handheld mode!

[FRTEHRPER]

Running it at native resolution, fsr performance, medium settings, fps lock 40fps, and it runs beautifully, while still looking really good.

[chamamemestre]

The gun runs great on a non-stock super fast SSD. It looks great too. Now...if only I could get the damn Dual Sense to work with this game...

[evanperry]

Steamdeck purchase still paying dividends 😎

[Poever]

If it can’t, then I fear tomorrow may never come

[unstopology]

Sony is so full of crap. They said they "can't" make this game for the PS4 or PS4 Pro because of technical limitations, namely the drive speed. BUT, they'll release it for Steam. What?

[mezomoza]

Amazing game, the only playstation franchise I care about
