So during one of the Xbox Game Pass promotions I signed up for a few months and ended up buying Forza Horizon 4 on sale. I am trying to find a way to play it on Steam Deck, but so far all I have found is guides on how to use the streaming on the Game Pass to play on Steam Deck, which only works with an active Game Pass sub (in my understanding). Has anyone found a way to get games that you have bought through the Windows Xbox store on Steam Deck? I would love to play FH4 on my Deck!

In my experience Steam Deck on windows works fine. Just use Steam Deck Tools, it will handle the controller inputs for you. I also personally use Playnite to open the gamepass games instead of using Steam since it’s just easier that way.

I somehow missed steam deck tools as a thing. Last time I tried figuring things out rewasd is what I kept finding.

Anyway just grabbed steam deck tools last night because of your comment and it's great so far. Currently playing Lies of P and it's perfect. Good looking out, man.
