Content Warning runs perfectly well on the Steam Deck. While Steam hasn’t officially verified it, you can give it a try by using the following settings:

Graphics Settings

  • Resolution: 1280×800
  • Window mode: Fullscreen
  • Vsync: Off
  • Max Framerate: 200
  • Ambient Occlusion: Off
  • Cinematic Aberration: Off
  • Shadow Quality: Low
  • Brightness: 0.00. But you can also change it as per what suits you.

Audio Settings

These are more of your personal preferences, but some general suggestions are as follows:

  • Voice Chat Mode: Push to Talk
  • Master Volume: 1.00
  • SFX Volume: 1.00
  • Voice Volume: 1.00

Control Settings

The main question now arises about Controls settings for the controller support. Content Warning doesn’t natively support using a controller, at the time of writing this guide. But the good news is you can use the Steam Deck community-made setup controls for this game. You can do that using Steam input and make it emulate Keyboard/mouse controls. As for the “V” key for Push to Talk and the “R” key to change the camera to selfie mode you can bind them to the back buttons of the Steam Deck. Finally, when trying to use the menu you will have to use the trackpad as a mouse.

That is all for the best Content Warning settings for the Steam Deck. Since you are interested in this game you should also check our guides on the best custom faces, how to host a public game, and save progress.
