How to Install Minecraft on Steam Deck

Curious about getting Minecraft up and running on your Steam Deck? You’re not alone! Many gamers want to know how they can enjoy this sandbox adventure on their new handheld device.

So, how exactly do you install Minecraft on a Steam Deck? Let’s dive right into the steps and get you started on your block-building journey.

Quick Steps to Get Minecraft on Your Steam Deck

First things first, installing Minecraft on your Steam Deck isn’t done through the Steam Store. Instead, you’ll use the desktop mode to download it directly from Minecraft’s official website.

Here’s a simple way to do it: Switch your Steam Deck to desktop mode, head over to Minecraft.net, and choose the version of Minecraft that suits your fancy. Remember, you’ll have to purchase it if you haven’t already. Once downloaded, just follow the on-screen instructions to install it.

Switching Between Modes and Enjoying Minecraft

After installation, you can switch back to gaming mode and add Minecraft as a non-Steam game. This allows you to launch Minecraft directly from your Steam Deck’s game library. Easy, right?

Now that you’ve got Minecraft installed, the world (or worlds) of creativity and adventure are at your fingertips. Whether in survival or creative mode, Minecraft on Steam Deck offers the same limitless fun and freedom as on other platforms.
