Tomb Raider I (1996) on the Steam Machine

Compatibility issueDerived from SteamOS compatibilityProtonDB Silver· 55 reports

Can the Steam Machine run Tomb Raider I (1996)?

Not reliably — Valve's SteamOS compatibility check flags Tomb Raider I (1996) as Unsupported, and the Steam Machine runs SteamOS.

Buy on Steam — $3.49−50%US Steam price as of ; yours may differ by region.

Red here means a compatibility problem (often anti-cheat or a launcher), not too little GPU power, so lower settings won't fix it.

Limitations
  • No frame-rate measured — the verdict is inferred from Valve's SteamOS compatibility rating.
  • The cause of Valve's Unsupported flag (anti-cheat, launcher …) isn't recorded per game.
  • Not recorded here: anti-cheat status, frame generation, game / SteamOS / Proton versions.

Blocked on SteamOS?

Cloud streaming runs the game on remote hardware, so SteamOS compatibility stops mattering — if your service carries it. Try cloud gaming (GeForce NOW / Game Pass).
