Go into Desktop mode, you can do this by opening the Power menu of the Steam Deck.ĭownload Origin (OriginThinSetup.exe) from the Origin website. This does seem to work with the EA Play/EA App, gaming mode seems to have an issue with how that app is build. Same if you want to make a guide with better writing, feel free to do so :)
I don't have the face or skills to turn it into a video. If anyone wants to make a video on this, feel free. Tested this with the Sims 3 as well, but some people are reporting problems with the launcher, make sure to use TS3W.exe for the Sims 3. This guide has been tested with The Sims 2 and The Sims 4 but likely works for all other Origin games. While I don't have the time to give too much support, let me know if there are any questions, other people might be happy to help as well.
Not having games separately in Steam also means you can't have a separate controller layout per game (plus for Origin). It also doesn't add the game to Steam separately. Mostly that it only installs one game and breaks when you try to update Origin. However, I found multiple flaws with his method. This post is based on the video "STEAM DECK - How to install ORIGIN LAUNCHER" by Mva. Others only install one game through Origin and the problems start when you install multiple.
Only people that suggest using Lutris which has some issues at the moment. I found that there is no good guide on installing games through Origin on the Steam Deck.
