I don’t use Windows at all, and have had the issue I mentioned for Skywalker Saga both on Steam OS and in Fedora on my laptop.

It does only occur in split screen though.

What kind of stuff is he into? My son loves simulator games like…

• BeamNG Drive - better with a wheel but very playable on controller.
• Snowrunner
• American truck simulator
• Farming simulator
• Construction simulator
• Lawn mowing simulator

There are a lot of good kart games on PC also, though I will say that my favorite - Sonic Racing Transformed - is much harder than Mario Kart.

Minecraft Dungeons is basically Diablo for kids.

Minecraft is good but I also like Dragon Quest Builders.

I will warn that some of the Lego games are rather buggy on PC. My son and I played all the way through Skywalker Saga and then when we started doing free play found that it would constantly crash.
