New Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom Mod Further Improves Emulation On Steam Deck
New Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom Mod Further Improves Emulation On Steam Deck-September 2024
Sep 21, 2024 8:55 AM

  The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom has only just been released on Nintendo Switch, but the game is already very much playable on PC thanks to the Yuzu and Ryujinx emulators. Sadly, the experience on Steam Deck is far from being optimal still, but a new mod that was released online improves it considerably by introducing a rather welcome visual option.

  The Ultrawide and Steam Deck aspect ratios mod, which can be downloaded from Game Banana, introduces options for four different aspect ratios - 21:9, 32:9, the Steam Deck's 16:10 ratio and 18:9 - improving the experience not only for Valve's portable console but also for Ultrawide displays. While the mod isn't perfect, due to the UI not stretching properly and a few bugs, it is definitely a step in the right direction, especially for Steam Deck users who want to replicate the handheld experience that can be had on proper Nintendo Switch hardware.

  To further improve your The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom experience on PC and Steam Deck, you should also download the Dynamic FPS mod, which prevents the heavy slowdowns that happen when the framerate dips down. As keeping a steady 60 FPS at 4K resolution requires a beefy system, the Dynamic FPS mod makes it so that variations in frame rate don't turn the game into a slideshow at the worst possible moments. Even those playing at 30 FPS can get some tangible benefits with this mod, especially if their system is having trouble keeping up.

  The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom is now available on Nintendo Switch worldwide. You can learn more about the next entry in the celebrated series by Nintendo by reading Nathan's glowing review.
