Anyone know of an RTS that plays well on Steam Deck? - Lemmy.world

I’ve been interested in picking one up in the sale, but between the controls and newer games having high CPU demands, it seems like a stretch to get a comfortable experience in handheld. Something with either built-in controller support, a slower pace or a good community layout would be perfect.

What style of RTS are you looking for? City Skylines and Transport Fever 2 show up under Strategy for Steam Deck verified games, but I personally wouldn’t consider them a traditional RTS (although they’re both very entertaining to me).

Halo Wars. It’s designed for gamepad and the campaign is pretty decent. Co op works well too.

Just picked it up, thanks. Shame about Halo Wars 2, hopefully it gets added to Steam in the future.

mentioned in another comment, but Halo Wars is fantastic on the Deck. also, Command and Conquer Remastered plays well with some controller configuration.
