Deadpool was removed from Steam in January 2015 after Marvel’s licensing deal with Activision expired. It’s harder than it should be to get a PC copy that works these days. If you find one, your next problem is the 7GB install size on a drive that’s already half full. This article helps with that.
Most budget laptops come with 128 GB or 256 GB SSDs. Windows, Chrome, and a few other games quickly take up all the available space. Large downloads are also a problem with a slow internet connection.
I downloaded, extracted, and played this Deadpool PC Game Highly Compressed version on my own PC before writing anything here. The version you can download below is a single compressed file that was compressed to 4 GB without losing any data. Nothing is removed from the game.

About The Game
Deadpool is a third-person action game created by High Moon Studios and published by Activision in June 2013. It’s one of the few games that really shows how insane the character is in the comics.
You can tell the writing team worked directly with Deadpool writer Daniel Way. The story, the dialogue, and the self-conscious comedy all seem to fit in.
The gameplay is fast-paced, featuring two katanas and a gun system that lets you switch between pistols, shotguns, and rifles on the fly. You can connect light and heavy attacks to make combos. You can also avoid enemy attacks and earn points to unlock new moves.
The level design takes you through a film studio, a sewer, and Genosha. Each area mixes old-school fighting with environmental humor that breaks the fourth wall. There is also an in-game shop where you can spend earned points on health boosts, new weapons, and combo extensions.
The first time I played Deadpool, I spent the first 20 minutes just standing in the menu area listening to Deadpool break character and complain about waiting. That was enough to tell me this game was created differently from other games.
The highly compressed version of the Deadpool PC Game saves you 3 GB of data without removing any important parts of the game. The 4 GB version is the best choice if your hard disk can’t handle 7 GB.
Features of the Deadpool PC Game Highly Compressed
Fourth-Wall Breaking Dialogue System
Deadpool constantly talks to the player, referencing game mechanics and arguing with his own inner voices. These lines change depending on where you are in the level and what you are doing, so it never feels like a loop.
Dual Katana Plus Ranged Weapon Combos
The core combat allows switching between close-range sword attacks and ranged options without pausing. The main concept behind scoring is chaining a sword knockup into a mid-air shotgun blast.
Teleporter Mechanic
Deadpool has a teleporter gadget used during combat and light puzzle sections. It adds a movement option that stops fights from turning into button-mash sessions.
Marvel Character Cameos
You can see Wolverine, Rogue, Gambit, and Cable in the main story, not just as Easter eggs. They all connect to the story and get actual screen time.

Common Errors and Fixes
| ERRORS | FIX |
| “MSVCP120.dll is missing” error on launch | Download and install the Visual C++ 2013 Redistributable (both x86 and x64) from the official Microsoft website. Restart after installing. |
| The game crashes immediately after the intro cutscene | Right-click the game .exe, go to Properties, then to the Compatibility tab. Set it to run in Windows 7 compatibility mode and check “Run as Administrator.” |
| Black screen on launch, game does not open | Open the NVIDIA or AMD control panel and force the game to use your dedicated GPU instead of integrated graphics. The game sometimes defaults to Intel HD Graphics. |
| Sound cuts out, or there is no audio during gameplay | Go to Windows Sound Settings and make sure your default audio device is set correctly. Also, verify DirectX is version 9.0c or later by running dxdiag in the Run dialog. |
| Sound cuts out, or there is no audio during gameplay | Your download file is corrupted. Delete the zip file and re-download from our website. It almost always happens when a download is interrupted or the file is partially saved. |
I ran into the black screen issue on my first test because my laptop was forcing the game to use its integrated Intel graphics. Switching it to the GTX card in the NVIDIA control panel fixed it in under two minutes.
Final Thoughts
