Silent Hill f Playable on Steam Deck with Configuration Needed

Silent Hill f is compatible with Steam Deck but requires some tweaks for optimal performance. Discover Valve’s Steam Deck classification for Silent Hill f and the game’s PC system requirements below.

Silent Hill f Steam Deck Testing Results Announced

Functional with Manual Configuration

Valve’s official testing confirms Silent Hill f is playable on Steam Deck, though it falls short of "verified" status due to necessary configurations. To achieve "verified" status, a game must seamlessly integrate with Steam Deck’s controls and display while passing Valve’s rigorous checks for input, visuals, performance, and system compatibility.

The testing reveals Silent Hill f supports default controller settings and displays Steam Deck controller icons. However, some in-game text may appear small and hard to read, and manual adjustments are needed for smooth performance on the handheld.

This marks a significant step forward compared to Silent Hill 2 Remake, which lacked Steam Deck support despite updates. Konami has not yet set a release date for Silent Hill f, giving developers time to further refine its performance.

PC System Specifications

Konami recently shared Silent Hill f’s PC requirements on its Steam store page, offering insight into its performance on Steam Deck. Below is the complete breakdown of the game’s minimum and recommended specifications.

For minimum specs, an NVIDIA GTX 1070 delivers 720p at 30fps on Performance Quality settings. Given Steam Deck’s GPU, expect slightly reduced performance compared to these requirements. Running at 720p on Steam Deck should be manageable, but connecting to an HD TV may highlight limitations. Konami recommends using an SSD for optimal performance.

For recommended specs, players can opt for Performance settings at 60fps or Quality settings at 30fps, with an SSD being mandatory.

The Silent Hill Transmission on March 13 provided a glimpse into the game’s features. Silent Hill f is available for wishlist on PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, and PC, with no confirmed release date yet. Stay updated with the latest Silent Hill f news by checking our detailed article below!
