How to Fish on Steam Deck

Since patch 1.0.11 the game is fully Steam Deck Verified — and you can stream it through GeForce NOW in the same patch.

Quick answer

Yes — How to Fish is fully Steam Deck Verified. The developer announced Steam Deck verification alongside GeForce NOW support on September 1, 2026 (patch 1.0.11). After that, level detail (battery life, fps targets) is player-reported, not official.

GeForce NOW

The same patch made the game playable through GeForce NOW. Streaming does not change progress handling; cloud saves are independent (see the save page).

Handheld-friendly options added over the patches

  • 1.0.11: toggles for aiming and sprinting, a hold-to-attack option, and a nametag toggle.
  • 1.1.2: reload rebinding and the option to downgrade to ironsight again.
  • 1.0.8: PlayStation controller glyphs now display correctly.
  • 1.0.5: X/Y axis invert options for looking around.

Checked numbers

The install is small by design — third-party databases put it around 650 MB, and the launch requirements ask for far less than Deck-spec hardware. Treat any in-browser “Deck fps” claims as unverified; the official record only confirms the Verified badge.
