Steam Deck
Well, it shouldn’t be surprising to know that Phantom Fury is indeed a Deck-Verified game. This means that Valve has tested the game and found its performance to be optimal, due to which it received the badge. However, player reports suggest something different. Many players reported that the game’s performance on the Deck isn’t satisfactory at all. Well, when you take the game’s system requirements and graphics into account, you’d think that it would run quite well on the Deck. However, that isn’t the case. Some shared that they are getting 30–50 FPS only, regardless of the settings they apply. Well, if you are in a similar situation, here’s what you can do. Head over to the game’s Graphics Settings menu and set the Shadows option to Low. Now, check if there is a boost in in-game FPS.
Lenovo Legion Go & Asus Rog Ally
Considering the superior hardware specifications of the Rog Ally and Legion Go, it shouldn’t come as a surprise that both of these handhelds can run the game with ease. Phantom Fury isn’t graphically intensive, which is why these handhelds should be able to run it at a stable 60FPS at all times. However, we can’t say the same about getting the controls to function as intended. Since the game has partial controller support, there may be some control-related issues, which you will have to fix manually by rebinding them.
Anyway, now you know all about the compatibility details of Phantom Fury for the Steam Deck, Asus Rog Ally, and Lenovo Legion Go. If you find this article informative, consider visiting Android Gram daily for more such content.
