Go to the game’s Steam page. Click on the Set...
That’s just not true. Deadlock’s development only happens on Windows but other new releases like the HL1 remaster have been ported to Linux (while at the same time dropping Mac support).
If CS2 is any indication, Deadlock will launch on Linux with its 1.0 release.
HL: Alyx had a native port, it’s Proton only now. Is CS2 or Deadlock native or Proton?
I’m not aware of any new Valve HL1 remasters and Black Mesa was an indie effort. Similarly TF2 is being ported to ARM Macs by indie teams now that source code is available and Valve couldn’t be bothered.
https://steamdb.info/app/546560/ says otherwise. Also, Alyx A) predates Steam Deck by several years and B) Steam Deck is not a VR platform. Citing a game that predates Steam Deck as proof that “Valve doesn’t release native ports anymore” is a stretch.
Is CS2 or Deadlock native or Proton?
I already stated that CS2 is native and Deadlock 1.0 may be as well, should they follow the example set by CS2. You literally replied to a comment stating that.
