While Valve yesterday were busycracking open a Steam Deck, CD Projekt Red showed us a game actually running on one. They’ve posted a series of short videos of them playingThe Witcher 3: The Wild Hunton Valve’s handheld PC and yup, that seems to run well enough. The game might be a few years old now, but it’s still one of bestRPGs—and honestly the sort of endless sprawling game I might rather play on-and-off on a handheld.

I skipped huge chunks of The Witcher 3 because god, it’s a lot, and it got too repetitive. But I’d happily multitask my way through those parts on the sofa, ticking off side-quests with the telly on in the background or something. No, I don’t want to buy a Nintendo Switch.
