Earlier this week we reported on the announcement that PUBG Battlegrounds (I am just going to be calling it PUBG from here on out, “Player Unknowns Battleground Battlegrounds” is A stupid name). With this change, PUBG will be getting some new anti-cheat measures, and there are some fears that this could affect the game working on the upcoming Steam Deck.
Back at the start of 2021, PUBG introduced Zakynthos, a Proprietary anti cheat solution, and one the devs claim helped them dump 28% more cheaters than last year. Now they are Tightening the anticheats effectiveness, including the implementation of Kernel drivers… which could be a problem.
Kernel Drivers are a windows thing, and don’t work in the Linux architecture. Valve may have a solution to this, they have made some big promises in regards to the steam decks compatibility. However only time will tell if this actually works out.
If the price of the steam deck is too rich for your blood, you can pick up a Nintendo switch from go2games.com
