You know that feeling when you're itching to play a Game Pass game on your Steam Deck, but all you've got is that clunky, macro-blocking cloud streaming solution from Microsoft? Yeah, me too. But guess what? There's a better way.
Microsoft has quietly been moving some of their Game Pass titles over to Battle.net, and these aren't those tricky UWP apps that Proton (SteamOS's translation layer) can't handle. These are good old-fashioned .exe files! And Proton? It knows exactly what to do with those.
In this video, I'll show you step-by-step how to get your favorite Game Pass games working on your Steam Deck without relying on sketchy cloud streaming. We'll install the Battle.net launcher on SteamOS, connect your Xbox Game Pass account, and get those games running locally. No more latency, no more macro-blocking, just pure, native PC gaming on the go.
This guide works for titles like Doom: The Dark Ages, Avowed, and Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 3 and 4, and any other Game Pass game that makes its way to the Battle.net launcher.
Ready to ditch the cloud and play your Game Pass games the right way? Let's get started.
