I’m keen to play a football game, e.g. FIFA.

FIFA 23 uses EA Play and thus doesn’t work on Steam Deck (?). Older copies of FIFA are not sold anymore.

Does anyone play football games on Steam Deck that they could recommend?

    Getting other launchers to run can be tough so that’s probably why you’d think it won’t work. But to me it’s not worth the effort.

    I’d go with emulating. Any PS2 FIFA game will work great. I’ve gotten WiiU roms to run well. People have gotten Switch games to work (I tried BotE but I need to organize the game files on a separate computer first and see if I can get it to work.) PS3 was a hassle to setup and won’t even work after hours of setup. Ymmv.

    There are some indie games on steam you can try as well but they are more arcady.

      In the end I went with Soccer Cup Pixel. It’s decent, and worked out the box. Thanks for the suggestion!
