GTA Online is no longer supported by Steam Deck thanks to a slightly baffling Rockstar anti-cheat update

GTA Online is no longer officially supported by Steam Deck, thanks to the introduction of some anti-cheat software which can, in fact, be made compatible with Steam Deck. Say what now?

In a rather remarkable move, Rockstar has added BattlEye anti-cheat to GTA Online, more than a decade since it was first released, and it's had a major impact on GTA 5's Steam Deck compatibility. The hugely popular game is now classed as 'Unsupported' on Valve's handheld, a move that doesn't quite tell the whole story.

We consider the Steam Deck to be the best handheld gaming PC, but its Linux-based SteamOS sometimes negatively impacts game compatibility. This has now happened with Grand Theft Auto 5, but there's more to this story than meets the eye, and Rockstar want people to know the game still works on the handheld, technically.
