Ubisoft has confirmed that Assassin’s Creed Shadows will run on Steam Deck at launch, which is great albeit unexpected news. It’s unexpected, because last month Ubisoft ruled out Steam Deck support, pointing out—quite reasonably—that Valve’s handheld is “below our minimum specs for PC“. So what’s changed?

The last time I saw my version of Henry in Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 he was covered in dirt and blood and wearing a pair of pants he stole off a corpse. Not exactly a fashion kingpin, let alone an actual king. And even for those who have been more successful with their Henry: he…

As documented by RPS, the whole thing began when a now-former subreddit moderator named DrTankHead jumped into a thread questioning the presence of…
