The bug causes the Steam Deck to accept no input ifElden Ringis less inactive for more than five minutes without any action from the user.
However, FromSoftware has already acknowledged the bug and is working on a hotfix to address the issue.
On its official Twitter post, an updateread: “A Steam Deck-related issue has been identified and a hotfix is being worked on. Leaving your Steam Deck inactive for more than 5 minutes may stop the game from accepting inputs.
