Although there is no official Steam Deck support for the game, COD Modern Warfare 2 can be played on Steam Deck but there’s a way to go about it. If you just install the game and try to run it, it will crash because of the game’s anti-cheat system that does not work on Linux. If you want to play this game on Steam Deck, these are the steps to follow;

1) The first step is to get your micro SD card and make sure it is empty because it will be formatted.

2) Now, plug the SD card into a computer and make sure a Windows ISO file is downloaded on that computer.

3) Next, download Rufus, a program that allows the use of ISO to create a bootable Windows installation on the micro SD card. Launch Rufus, select your ISO file, and change the Image option to Windows to Go and run it.

4) Once this is done, take the micro SD card out and insert it into your Steam Deck and boot it up by holding the power button and the volume down button.

5) A boot screen that allows you to pick what device you want to boot from will pop up. Go down to the bottom and choose the micro SD card and then it will boot into Windows.

6) Install the Steam Deck drivers for Windows which can be downloaded from the official website. Then, flip the Windows screen from portrait mode to landscape mode in the Windows Display settings.

7) Install Steam, download COD Modern Warfare II, and launch it.

To effectively play the game, you have to change the game’s control settings from standard Mouse aiming controls to Joystick aiming and you are done. Kindly share this article in your gaming community, and keep in touch with Vabsaga for more gaming tips and updates.
