Is Black Ops 6 Steam Deck compatible? If you were hoping to play the latest Call of Duty game on Valve’s handheld, we have some bad news for you. The Ricochet anti-cheat system it uses isn’t compatible with Linux, which means you’ll need to dual-boot your Steam Deck with Windows in order to play.
While the Steam Deck is the best handheld gaming PC, the limitations of its Linux-based operating system often impact its ability to run competitive multiplayer games where anti-cheat tech is deployed. Not all anti-cheat systems cause issues, but Call of Duty’s proprietary program has yet to consider compatibility outside of Windows.
