Alright - I’m working through my own games … Let’s hear yours … working or not working!

If your game has HDR and you’ve tried it, please comment with whether it works or doesn’t work. No need to list games that don’t have HDR or if you don’t have an OLED :

Name HDR Works? Notes
Overwatch 2 No Says display isn’t compatible
Pinball M (Demo) Yes
Hogwart’s Legacy Yes
Baldur’s Gate 3 Yes

    Tetris Effect works if you use the fix mentioned here.

    Using these launch parameters enable the HDR setting in the graphics options menu:

    SteamDeck=0 %command% -dx12

    Spider man remastered looks worse in HDR than SDR. Am I doing something wrong? If not maybe it should be noted on the table.

        There are HDR settings for max luminance and paperwhite on Spiderman. No matter what they are set to, the buildings and Spiderman’s suit look more washed out in HDR than SDR. I have Doom eternal and RE4 on my steam deck. Doom eternal looks incredible in HDR, and RE4 looks better in HDR than SDR.

    Cyberpunk looks amazing with HDR, works perfect. Forza Horizon 5 works perfect. Tiny Tina Wonderlands HDR works on Proton Experimental, but is questionable (too dark for my tastes, looked it up and it’s kinda of a common problem with the games implementation of HDR). Think the same with Doom Eternal, using Proton Experimental, looks good to me though. Overall, when the game implements HDR well, it’s incredible on the OLED Deck.

    Grip, haven’t gotten it to work yet myself, look here: https://steamcommunity.com/app/396900/discussions/0/1652169858536175563/#c1644295067080498033

    Mentioned files are here:

    home/deck/.local/share/system/Steam/steamapps/compatdata/396900/pfx/drive_c/users/steamuser/AppData/Local/Grip/Saved/Config/WindowsNoEditor/

    These are Unreal Engine settings, so it might work for other Unreal-based games, or you could borrow well working settings from other Unreal games.

    Mentioned settings might not be perfect for the Deck, I don’t know if the exact HDR standards the Deck is using can be found anywhere yet.
