Description

Compatibility Report

System Information

  • GPU: Steam Deck
  • Driver/LLVM version: Steam Deck Stable (SteamOS 3.4)
  • Kernel version: Steam Deck Stable (SteamOS 3.4)
  • Proton version: 7.0-6

I confirm:

  • that I haven't found an existing compatibility report for this game.
  • that I have checked whether there are updates for my system available.

Symptoms

It will eventually crash the Steam Deck, with the RAM use spiking up to ~14.2GB. Exact same problem as God of War and others.

Proton Log up until the Steam Deck rebooted:

steam-1326470.tar.gz

Reproduction

Play for a while and watch the RAM creep up until it crashes, and potentially entirely reboot the Steam Deck.

Research direction

No source file or test is named. Start by reproducing the memory growth on a Steam Deck with Proton 7.0-6 and inspect the attached steam-1326470.tar.gz log, using the linked God of War report for comparison. Done means identifying the cause of the RAM spike and confirming the crash or reboot no longer occurs.
