Despite Red Dead Redemption 2 not being fully verified for the Steam Deck, that hasn’t stopped it from leaping into the Steam Deck top 10 most played list this week, with Steam axing 67% off the retail price.

Red Dead Redemption 2 has been hugely popular since its arrival back in 2019, hitting a peak player count of 77,655 (around 8 months ago) and still clocking around 50,000 players to this day. The open-world Western has been the recipient of over 175 Game of the Year Awards and continues to be in high regard by both PC gamers and console players alike.

Recently, the game has seen a rise in popularity over on the Steam Deck – despite not being fully verified on the industry’s best handheld gaming console. The “playable” title is now into 8th place in Steam’s top 100 Steam Deck chart, up 2 places this week.

Red Dead Redemption 2 sees Steam Deck popularity grow

The game has seen steady growth over the past few months, climbing from 41,000 players to 51,000 in just 2 months – and we think the latest offer probably has something to do with it.

Right now, you can pick up Red Dead Redemption 2 for just $19.79 – a saving of $40.20 or 67% off. The makes it one of the most attractive Steam deals on offer right now, and is well worth a look if you haven’t already. It’s unclear how long Steam will retain this price, so I’d act quickly if you are wanting to give it a go.
