Another performance update. Probably the most noticeable one yet. Steam Deck was already able to hit 60fps last patch, but it's sitting there a lot more comfortably now. Just a reminder, frame rate is capped at 60fps by default. If you disable the cap in settings, the game will still hard cap at 144fps no matter what, there's no point letting it run higher than that. This is just so your CPU/GPU isn't working harder than it needs to. I'd recommend always playing with the frame rate capped at 60fps.
