Elden Ring has a strange problem on Steam Deck but FromSoftware is working on it
Elden Ring on Steam Deck seems to have a particular problem: fortunately the development team has already understood what it is and is working on it. Let’s see what we know about it.
Elden Ring has been updated awaiting the arrival of the Shadow of the Erdtree DLC and all fans can’t wait to start their adventures in the new content. However, it seems that this update did not correct a problem related to Steam Deck .
In fact, it seems that if you leave the game idle on Steam Deck for more than five minutes, the RPG may stop accepting player inputs , thus forcing you to completely restart Elden Ring.

It’s unclear what the source of the problem is , but today’s 1.12 update appears to be the cause. It should be noted that there are no specific innovations for the Steam Deck version of Elden Ring in this update, but probably something related to Valve’s portable platform must have “broken”. Not everyone runs into this bug, besides,
In any case, the Elden Ring team has figured out what’s wrong and is in the process of creating a fix. While waiting for news, (re)read the review of Shadow of the Erdtree , which we remember will be available from June 21st on PC, Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S, PlayStation 4 and PlayStation 5.
