Can the Steam Deck play every game?
The Steam Deck is pretty awesome, letting you take a big chunk of your PC gaming library on the go. However, it's not a magic wand that makes every game instantly playable. Most Steam games will run just fine, especially ones Valve has optimized for the device. But there are some games, particularly those with heavy DRM or that are super resource-intensive, that might not work as well. It's always a good idea to check the Steam Deck compatibility page for the games you're itching to play on it!

Short answer: No, not every game. But a lot of them? Absolutely. The Steam Deck runs a lot of games really well, but you might hit a snag with games that need more oomph than the Deck can provide or those pesky ones with DRM issues. So, do a little homework on your faves before you dive in.
Nope. You're out of luck with some titles. DRM and high requirements are the main culprits.
