    The fact they are making changes to windows and partnering with Asus on releasing Xbox hardware in the same space is more than enough evidence, but also, the steam deck is a tiny part of the market(it might be the best but it is still tiny).

    I do wonder how this works for offline play which is fairly common for handheld PCs. Does Game Pass work offline?

      I think(but it has been a long time since I touched gamepass) there is a timeframe between login checks.

      So you might be able to download something, use it for a week, then have to re-authorise again.

      But I don’t know the time frame, so might be 48 hours or a month.
