The biggest new PS5 release now supports the Steam Deck. The PlayStation 5 has had a rollercoaster of a year. Between the likes of Helldivers 2, Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth, Stellar Blade, Black Myth: Wukong, and Astro Bot the highs have been frequent.

“Journey to a distant future, where the land is made of LEGO bricks and lush nature has reclaimed the Earth,” reads an official description of the game for those unfamiliar with it. “Meet the Nora tribe who live in the settlement of Mother’s Heart, and catch your first glimpse of the incredible dinosaur-like machines that roam the forests, mountains, and deserts that stretch beyond the village walls…”
