Men of War 2, the sequel to the acclaimed RTS franchise, is out now, taking players into the heart of World War II, on the Eastern and Western Fronts. While the game is out for PC and is available via Steam, the question now is if it is playable on handled devices like the Steam Deck, Lenovo Legion Go, and Asus Rog Ally. After all, it is a real-time strategy game, and being able to enjoy the experience on the go would mean that you can grind out missions whenever you feel like it. So, have the devs kept the popularity of handheld gaming in mind while developing the game? Well, here we are with all the answers.
If you think about it, Men of War 2 is a great fit for handheld devices because the gameplay is more deliberate and strategic, not having you rely on insane control mechanics. Even the overall visual aesthetic is not demanding on the GPU. So, with compatibility, you can play it for short periods, which is perfect when you’re on the move. The game’s controls are easy to use, and it’s exciting to command your troops in battles or complete missions. Whether you’re fighting in quick skirmishes or exploring historical campaigns, Men of War 2 on the go can make the game even more accessible.
Men of War 2 Steam Deck, Lenovo Legion Go & Asus Rog Ally Support Details
Steam Deck
For the Steam Deck, Men of War 2 hasn’t yet been officially listed as “Deck Verified” or “Playable”. However, before the game’s release, a moderator on the Steam discussion threads provided a hopeful update regarding Linux and Deck support. On May 3rd, the moderator stated, “Men of War II has native Linux support. It’s also compatible with Steam Deck.” This news made players optimistic. Now, with the game released, you can clearly see that the game has a tab dedicated to Steam OS and Linux devices in the System Requirements section. Also, player reports confirm that Men of War 2 is indeed playable on the Steam Deck. There are even gameplay videos online showing the game running smoothly on the Deck. So if you have a Steam Deck, go ahead and launch the game. Chances are high that you will be able to play the game without any major game-breaking issues.
Asus Rog Ally and Lenovo Legion Go
When it comes to the Asus ROG Ally and Lenovo Legion Go, Men of War 2 isn’t officially supported on these devices yet. However, both the Asus ROG Ally and Lenovo Legion Go are like mini PCs—flexible and more powerful than the Steam Deck. Given that Men of War 2 runs on the Windows OS and its performance is good on the Steam Deck, we are sure that the same can be said for these more powerful devices. If you own one of these devices, it’s worth giving Men of War 2 a try. Once you’ve tried it, share your experience with the community!
