October is always a big month. Not just because it’s the best time of the year for everyone who adores horror, but also because it regularly sees giveaways of fantastic games. If you happen to have an Amazon Prime membership, Steam Deck players can get five extra free games right now with even more set to arrive soon.
Unfortunately, the performances of games differ on Valve’s handheld platform. There are reports that the performance of Diablo 4 has become worse with the Vessel of Hatred, meanwhile, Space Marine 2 updates have attempted to improve the game’s compatibility. The Silent Hill 2 Remake is also playable on Steam Deck, and Final Fantasy 16 has become more playable,too.
While all of the above aforementioned titles are excellent, Steam Deck users can get some more good free games right now.
