p>Do you want to get Minecraft working on Steam Deck or a regular Linux desktop with no hassle? This is a way to achieve this and it's a breeze. For this , I chose the PolyMC launcher (a fork of MultiMC) available on Flathub since the official Minecraft launcher Flatpak doesn't save your password on Steam Deck and PolyMC of course supports modding too.

p>- Install PolyMC from the Discover Software Centre on Steam Deck, or Flathub directly for desktop Linux. - Launch PolyMC and then add your account in the top right corner. It supports both Mojang logins and Microsoft logins. - Open the main PolyMC Settings and click Minecraft in the left pane. Select the option to close PolyMC when the game window is opened. https://anotepad.com/notes/cgsmp7hf If you don't, the Steam Deck will switch between the two windows when you load the Game Mode/ Deck UI. - Ensure in the PolyMC Settings that Java is set to the latest version, which is necessary for the latest version of Minecraft. Click on Add Instance in the top left. Next, select normal Minecraft or mods that have built-in search. It will install everything you need. To start Steam directly, visit the Games menu at the top and select Add a Non-Steam Game. Then find PolyMC in that list.

p>Some YouTube? comments suggested that you test out modpacks that are optimized. However, I didn't notice a significant difference in performance or power usage that would justify them on Deck when testing the same map seed. Although controller mods are available, they are rarely updated and only work with certain Minecraft versions. So I recommend sticking to Steam Input and adjusting a few keys.
