Red Faction – Steam Deck Gameplay – Gyro Aim Testing

Today we are taking a look at Red Faction on the Steam Deck.
Red Faction is the first game in the Red Faction franchise that was originally released in mid-2001. Red Faction was also the first game to run on the Geo-Mod engine that allowed for unprecedented environmental destruction. The game takes place on Mars in the year 2075. The protagonist, Parker, is a miner who came to Mars seeking a better life away from Earth. Instead, he finds that the Ultor Corporation abuses the workers and forces them to endure hazardous living conditions. A plague of an unknown origin sweeps through the colony, but Ultor does nothing to halt its propagation or to provide for the sick, prompting an uprising from the miners.

Despite the game being over 22 years old it still goes through some hiccups on the Deck. The game generally performs well, but on some levels the FPS can dip to 40.

There’s some community layouts available that make this game a bit easier to play and a bit more modern. I also experimented with gyro aiming.

Battery life is around 2:30 hours for Red Faction on the Steam Deck.
