I had Cyberpunk on my Steam Deck when I put it to sleep a couple days ago. I turned it on today, having totally forgot I was in game. I stared at a nightclub on my screen, dumbfounded, as I was expecting the main menu.
I hadn’t even paused the game when I put my Deck to sleep. I just hit the power button and could play instantly. I still had 30% charge from having played earlier because I didn’t even plug the thing in.
What a total shock.

Oh yeah. Comes very handy for games like Armored Core, where you get super far into a level then have to go, but can’t save your progress manually. Just put it in sleep mode 😊
The Battery discharge with around 10% per day on standby.
Switch users: You’re new here huh
How’s it play native on the deck? It’s going to be my next game for sure.
Plan to mix home streaming and running it native (hopefully).
Putting a PC to sleep is going to use power to keep the RAM refreshed but that’s pretty much it. So it doesn’t matter what the PC was doing, it’s not going to have an impact here.
The downside is the PC can’t actually do stuff while asleep while ARM can do things in low power mode like download stuff in the background.
I leave it for weeks at a time.
Right? The only time my deck ever gets turned off is when it is updating.
