Call of Duty Warzone Mobile

You can run Call of Duty Warzone on the Steam Deck platform via the Windows OS that you can install using any bootable media drive with Windows on it.

Make a bootable USB with Windows 10 or 11—you can check YouTube tutorials if you are having a hard time making one—and plug it into your Steam deck 3.1 USB slot available in the Steam Deck dock. Boot the Windows installation, go through the installation process and complete it. 

Once that is done—install the necessary drivers and the Battle.net launcher. After that, you can download Call of Duty Warzone and play it via the Battle.net launcher or the desktop icon that appears once the installation starts. 

Call of Duty Warzone Performance on Steam Deck

To put forward, Call of Duty Warzone on the Steam Deck is unplayable. If you run the game on low settings, you get around 30~70 FPS. Keep in mind! Most of the time, during battle, you will be getting the low end— which is around 30 to 40 FPS—which makes the game rather unplayable.

To summarize things up! You can play Call of Duty Warzone on Steam Deck. But, the gameplay performance of the game on Steam Deck is bad and almost unplayable.
