Back in 2015, when there weren’t many good interactive horror games that provided players with a good story along with decent gameplay, Until Dawn made its debut and it was a huge success for Supermassive Games. The core highlight of this game revolves around the story and decision-making, which have a huge impact on the ending you’ll get to experience. Well, it’s safe to say that Until Dawn offered a pretty new perspective to the horror genre, and even in 2024, it is still popular. Anyway, since the game was published by Sony Computer Entertainment, it was a PS4-exclusive title upon release. However, the exclusivity is going to end, as the game has been scheduled for a PS5 and PC release in 2024. Since the game is coming to PCs, there must be curiosity among players wondering whether the upcoming game will be compatible with the Steam Deck, Asus Rog Ally, and Lenovo Legion Go. If you too are interested in knowing the same, this is just the article you need.
It has been almost 9+ years since the release of Until Dawn, but the craze for this game hasn’t died down. With the recent announcement of a rebuilt and enhanced version of the base game debuting on PS5 and PC, fans are more than excited to try it out. Well, this also includes players on handheld systems. Given that handhelds are very popular now, and most prefer to take their in-game experiences on the go, it is quite natural for players to wonder about the handheld compatibility details of a game that’s going to be released soon. So, without further ado, let’s get right into the details.

Steam Deck
Given the fact that the Steam Deck is a capable handheld, and Until Dawn is primarily a story-based horror game, it seems to be a perfect fit for Steam Deck gameplay. Although we would love to state that Until Dawn will be compatible with the Deck, for now, it seems unlikely. Why? Well, that’s because the game requires you to connect to PSN. Even though it is a single-player game, it requires players to have a PlayStation Network account and then connect to PSN, which only supports Windows. As the Deck is based on a custom Linux-based SteamOS, signing into PSN won’t work on the device. Ghost of Tsushima also has a similar requirement, but only for the multiplayer mode. To play the single-player mode, you don’t need a PSN account. This is the reason why Ghost of Tsushima can be played on the Deck. But since Until Dawn is primarily a single-player game that requires a PSN account, we don’t think it will be compatible with the Deck. In that case, you can dual-boot your Deck with Windows and then enjoy the game.
Asus Rog Ally and Lenovo Legion Go
Unlike the Steam Deck, both the Rog Ally and Legion Go are WindowsOS-based mini PCs that are capable of running almost every PC game. Similarly, we are quite sure that both these handhelds will be able to run Until Dawn. The only thing left to check is the game’s performance, which can be done after its official release on PC.
