Marvel's Spider-Man 2's Steam Deck support has arrived, letting players experience the web-slinging action anywhere. However, initial player reactions are mixed, with performance concerns taking center stage.

While the Steam Deck compatibility is exciting, many report frame rate drops and graphical glitches, especially in crowded areas or intense fights. Insomniac Games acknowledges these issues and is actively developing patches to improve performance.

Despite these hiccups, many praise the game's visuals and smooth control integration on the Steam Deck. Swinging through New York City feels immersive, thanks to the Deck's screen and responsive controls. However, inconsistent performance remains a major drawback for some.

Valve suggests adjusting graphic settings to improve stability. Lowering texture quality or disabling effects can help maintain a smoother frame rate, even during demanding scenes.

Future updates promise a better Steam Deck experience. While current performance isn't perfect, the ability to play such a visually impressive game portably is still a significant achievement. Potential buyers should consider the current limitations and the promise of future improvements before purchasing.
