Analysis — Killsquad on the Steam Machine
RPGs swing between light dungeons and busy hub towns, and the towns are the Zen 4 CPU's real test. If the frame-rate dips there, cut NPC density and draw distance before touching resolution.
Spend the headroom on image quality — 1440p output with FSR Quality — rather than settings that barely move the picture.
ProtonDB is more cautious than Valve's Deck Playable rating: 25 reports average Silver (runs with minor issues), so expect to read a fix or two before it's smooth.
Steam lists full controller support, so it plays from the sofa without a keyboard.
