It’s possible you have a lengthy journey coming up, or maybe you just like the piece of mind that comes with knowing your high-powered handheld gaming PC will have enough juice when it counts the most.
To be of assistance, we have compiled a list of games that will not deplete the battery life of your Steam Deck, as well as some general guidelines and recommendations for extending the amount of time you may spend gaming regardless of the genre you’re into.

This article will be updated over time to incorporate other games that attract our eye while without significantly draining the battery life of the Deck.
Battery-Friendly Steam Deck Games
According to Valve’s estimations, the amount of time spent playing Steam Deck can range anywhere from two to eight hours. According to our previous encounters with them, the vast majority of AAA video games gravitate toward the shorter end of the spectrum; in fact, some of the most graphically demanding adventures can even be completed in under two hours.
Every game that we are going to discuss here has been put through rigorous testing to verify that it can be played for at least three hours straight. In general, we made an effort to avoid including anything that was significantly shorter than four hours.

It would appear that Valve’s Steam Deck’s battery life estimate is reasonably accurate, when taken as a whole. However, similar to smartphones, constant excessive use will eventually reduce the overall capacity of the device. Therefore, the outcomes may be different for you.
Last but not least, the advice that we provide at the very end of this article will assist you in increasing the estimated length of battery life for each of these games, as well as for games that first demonstrated to be too taxing to qualify for our list. Let’s get to it.
