  • This will show you how to use your steam deck controller in games from the epic games launcher such as Fortnite, Rocket league, and possibly other non steam games. I did include a short bit of Fortnite gameplay on the steam deck with full controller support.

    It's not working it's not popping up with the controller configuration and when I click on epic games it just goes back to the big screen steam?

    I have been looking for weeks and yours is the first solution I've found that actually WORKS. I had been adding the game itself as a non-Steam game but it hadn't occurred to me to use the EGL and try it from there.

      Sounds like it defaulted to mouse n keyboard that’s why your sticks still worked. You need to make sure epic games is entirely closed even in background apps before you open it via Steam.

    When you installed the new Audio drivers did you also update your APU driver as that received an update as of may 13th to fully support the Audio drivers. If you didn't update that may be the reason why your Graphics glitch out sometimes.
