OS Requirements

  • Arch Linux or any Arch Linux based distro (should use systemd as init system)
  • SDDM display manager

Hardware Requirements

Warning

The Gamescope session may not work on all hardware, as it was primarily developed for the Steam Deck.

Info

You can install it on your system and try it out. If you encounter any issues, you can remove the script using the Uninstall option in GUI Helper.

Info

If you get stuck on a black screen, see the stuck on a black screen section to return to the desktop again.

  • Most users report that it does not work with NVIDIA GPUs.
  • It is designed for the Steam Deck, which uses an AMD GPU, and should generally work on most AMD GPUs, though minor tweaks may be needed in some cases.
  • For multi-display setups, some additional configuration may be required. Should work good with single display setups.
