Marvel's Spider-Man 2's Steam Deck support has arrived, letting players swing through New York City on the go. However, initial reactions are mixed, with performance issues reported by some users.
Many players have noted frame rate drops and graphical glitches, particularly in crowded areas or during intense action. Insomniac Games has acknowledged these concerns and is actively developing patches to improve performance and optimize the game for the Steam Deck.
Despite these challenges, many praise the game's visual quality and smooth control integration with the Steam Deck. The immersive experience of web-slinging through the city remains largely intact.
To improve performance, Valve suggests adjusting graphical settings. Lowering texture quality or disabling certain effects can significantly improve frame rate stability.
While performance issues exist, the ability to play such a visually impressive game portably is a significant achievement. Potential buyers should consider the current limitations and the promise of future updates before purchasing.
