If you were a fan of the original Lollipop Chainsaw, you must be excited to see Juliet back in action in the newly remastered Lollipop Chainsaw RePOP. Now obviously you want to try the game out but this time, on the go! After all, with modern handheld devices like the Steam Deck, Asus ROG Ally, and Lenovo Legion Go and new devices entering the space, handheld gaming is becoming the norm. So, many players like yourself might be wondering whether this remastered zombie-slaying adventure is compatible with these devices. Well, in this article, we go into all the details you need to know about RePOP’s compatibility with these handhelds.
The new RePOP release, despite demanding around 60 GB of storage space, remains fairly modest in terms of system requirements for processing and graphics. With a minimum requirement of an Intel Core i5-8400 and a GTX 1060, it’s clear that the game isn’t too taxing for modern hardware. Also, the title offers full controller support. All these factors point to the game being playable on devices like the Steam Deck, Asus ROG Ally, and Lenovo Legion Go. But, before making any speculations, let’s dive deeper to see if there are any official statements or player reports confirming its compatibility with these handhelds.
LOLLIPOP CHAINSAW RePOP Steam Deck, Lenovo Legion Go & Asus Rog Ally Support Details
Steam Deck
As of writing this article, Lollipop Chainsaw RePOP has not yet received an official Steam Deck “Verified” or even a “Playable” label from Valve. However, that doesn’t mean you’re out of luck. Going through player discussion forums, we found that the game is indeed playable on the Steam Deck as per player reports, but it comes with its fair share of issues and requires some tweaks. A first impression video by SteamDeckHQ shows that the game is, in fact, playable on the Steam Deck at 900p or lower. While the game runs at a decent 30 FPS, it’s evident that it might not be very pleasing for many to fully enjoy the fast-paced, zombie-slaying action on the go.
Asus Rog Ally and Lenovo Legion Go
Like the Steam Deck, you can run Lollipop Chainsaw RePOP on the Asus ROG Ally or Lenovo Legion Go, considering the more powerful hardware of these devices compared to the Deck. Both the ROG Ally and Legion Go have slightly better hardware when compared to the Steam Deck making them well-equipped to handle the game’s relatively modest system requirements. There are already gameplay videos circulating online that show the game running smoothly on both the Asus ROG Ally and Lenovo Legion Go. So, if you run the game at 900p, you should be able to get close to 40 FPS in-game on both these handhelds.
Well, we hope all our doubts on this matter are cleared now. So, go ahead, grab your handheld device, and enjoy the hack-and-slash adventure.
