Silent Hill f Will Be Playable on a Steam Deck

Those who hoped for a handheld Silent Hill f experience might be able to manage that, as the Steam product page for the new game in the series noted it is “playable” on a Steam Deck. This means while it isn’t “verified” and guaranteed to run perfectly on the device, it should work. The latest entry is due to appear on PCs, as well as consoles like the PS5 and Xbox Series X. [Thanks, Wario64!] The detailed explanation suggests that some adjustments will be needed to ensure Silent Hill f works on a Steam Deck. The important one is that the compatibility discussion mentions “manual configuration of graphics settings.” The system requirements already noted that someone only clearing the minimum specs would need to go with a lower resolution, framerate, and the mode that prioritizes Performance over (graphics) Quality. So this suggests someone playing on a handheld PC gaming device would need to go with lower or the lowest settings to make it work. Said explanation also mentioned some text could be small, but there is a magnifier function on Steam Decks that could help with that. Speaking of which, the full PC system requirements for Silent Hill f also appeared on the Steam page, so those with Steam Deck, handheld gaming PCs, or standard computers can see how their rig would stand up to the game. First, here are the minimum specs we need to run it. Konami noted that people with builds around this point would need to go with 720p, 30fps, and Performance mode.  OS: Windows 11 x64Processor: Intel Core i5-8400 / AMD Ryzen 5 2600Memory: 16 GB RAMGraphics: NVIDIA® GeForce® GTX 1070 Ti or AMD Radeon™ RX 5700DirectX: Version 12Storage: 50 GB available space (SSD recommended)Sound Card: Windows Compatible Audio Device.Additional Notes: Playing on minimum requirements should enable to play on Performance quality settings in 30 at 720p.
