An apparent dispute between Rockstar and Valve has left Grand Theft Auto 5 to be listed as unsupported by Steam Deck.

A new update for Grand Theft Auto Online has left the game in shambles for players on the Steam Deck. Here is what we know so far!

Surprisingly, Rockstar have now added BattlEye anti-cheat to Grand Theft Auto V, and sadly it seems they have not enabled the support for Linux desktop and Steam Deck with Valve's Proton.

The reason for Valve listing Grand Theft Auto V (GTA V) as unsupported is that the developer, Rockstar, has reportedly disrupted compatibility with Valve's handheld for its online modes

A slew of leaks about Grand Theft Auto VI emerged a couple of years ago, and now new details have been shared.

Even if this particular report is false, the sheer scope and ambition of Grand Theft Auto 6 means a delay could occur at any moment. GTA 6 will need to be bug tested to the gills, and will require more patches than a 40-a-day smoker looking to kick the habit.

The addition of BattlEye anti-cheat to GTA has made the game incompatible with the Steam Deck. Steam Deck players can no longer access the GTA Online portion of the game. Rockstar is blaming Valve, despite other BattlEye games being compatible with the platform.
