Totally, you can play Minecraft on the Steam Deck, but brace yourself for a little workaround since it's not directly available on Steam. You'll need to download it via the Microsoft Store or another platform, then use SteamOS's compatibility layer to run it. It's a bit of a roundabout way, but Minecraft fans have found it to be a solid solution to take their crafting and exploring on the go!

Minecraft on Steam Deck? Sure, but it's more like a DIY project than a plug-and-play situation.

Nah, you can't just grab Minecraft from Steam for the Deck. But, if you're up for a bit of a setup adventure, it's doable.

The Steam Deck, being the powerhouse that it is, can indeed run Minecraft. You'll need to sideload it since it's not available on the Steam Store, but once you do, it's game on for building and exploring!

Yes, Minecraft can run on the Steam Deck, but it's not as simple as clicking download on Steam. You gotta go through some extra steps to get it on there because it's not originally part of the Steam library. But once you've got it set up, it runs pretty smoothly!
