The Everybody's Golf Hot Shots Steam Deck rating was a hot topic in the lead-up to its release, thanks to the inclusion of a kernel-level anti-cheat. However, this family-friendly golf game is out now, and it turns out there was no need to worry about the anti-cheat at all.
Typically, the Steam Deck doesn't get on well with anti-cheat software, and I've written about how Steam Deck anti-cheat has become one of the Valve handheld's biggest concerns. Despite this, as we discuss in our buying guide, we still consider it the best handheld gaming PC on the market, regardless of this compatibility issue.

Everybody's Golf Hot Shots system requirements

Bandai Namco returns not with another Elden Ring DLC, but with the Everybody's Golf Hot Shots system requirements, which are considerably easier to meet than its Souls-like series. Yet, for a deceptively simple game, Bandai's golf experience could reasonably challenge older laptops and PCs, and that's before a tornado hits the golf course.
Everybody's Golf Hot Shots is, very simply, a single-player and multiplayer golfing game, and it certainly doesn't require the best gaming PC from our buying guide to get it running. The game itself, however, is a bit more than a simple round of golf, adding explosions, mystery boxes, falling monoliths, and some over-the-top particle effects, all of which could put the game onto our best sports games list in due course. If you want to try out the game on a handheld, you can read our Everybody's Golf Hot Shots Steam Deck guide.
