Battlefield 1 received an update that included an anti-cheat system, making it incompatible with the Steam Deck.
EA Anti-Cheat (EAAC) is not compatible with Linux, leading to the removal of compatibility for the Steam Deck.
This is not the first time a game published by EA has become incompatible with the Steam Deck due to an anti-cheat update.
The situation raises questions about the size of the Steam Deck user base and the willingness of large publishers to remove compatibility without hesitation.
