Can you play South of Midnight on Steam Deck and ROG Ally? Best settings provided

Microsoft's latest exclusive title, South of Midnight, is now available to play. The game is only available on Windows and Xbox Series X/S. Since the game is available for Windows, it can be played on handheld consoles like the Steam Deck and Asus ROG Ally.

The game's Steam page claims that it is Steam Deck verified. If a game is Steam Deck verified, it goes without saying that it can run on other platforms, like the Asus ROG Ally, Legion GO, and MSI Claw.

Apart from the Steam Deck, which runs SteamOS, all the other handhelds in the market run Windows. As far as the performance is concerned, South of Midnight is not a demanding title.

All of the above-mentioned handhelds can easily run South of Midnight at a minimum of 30 FPS. With the correct graphics settings, you can easily get 60 FPS as well.
