Despite being a visual stunner, Expeditions: A Mudrunner Game actually runs quite well on the Steam Deck. It shouldn’t be that much of a surprise though, because the last entry, SnowRunner also ran great on the Deck, even at higher settings. If you’re looking to play Expeditions: A MudRunner Game on the go, here are the best graphics settings for it on the Steam Deck.
Is Expeditions: A Mudrunner Game Playable on the Steam Deck?
Yes, Expeditions: A Mudrunner Game is playable on the Steam Deck with a 40 FPS lock with a mix of High and Medium settings.

With the settings above and a 40 FPS lock, I was playing at a fairly consistent framerate. There are minor dips when you quickly turn the camera around, but overall, it’s very impressive how well the game runs and looks great at the same time. Make sure you’re using the Frame Limit tool of the Steam Deck rather than the in-game setting.
Is 60 FPS Possible?
If you still want a higher framerate, then yes, 60 FPS is indeed possible if you use the Low preset. For a game like this though, I honestly don’t think you need 60 FPS, especially at the cost of visuals. It’s slow-paced, and the 40 Hz lock does wonders for smoothness.
