Hotfix in the works for Elden Ring Steam Deck bug

The Shadow of the Erdtree expansion is almost here, but FromSoftware has cautioned a certain group of players about a bug that affects gameplay in Elden Ring.

Earlier today, Elden Ring released a new patch that adds several adjustments to gameplay and adds support for the highly anticipated DLC, but it also came with a warning. On the official X/Twitter page for the game, the developers identified an issue related to the Steam Deck version of the game that causes inputs to become inoperable if you leave your Steam Deck idle for more than five minutes. While no official release date for the hotfix has been confirmed, the developers assured players they are working on it and apologized for the inconvenience.
