I lost some multiplayer games because of their anti-cheat, but that “forced” me to go through my backlog (including family-shared games), so I don’t mind after all.

Steam games with Proton

Heroic Games Launcher games with Wine

    Not sure what kind of multi player game you prefer. Dota 2 and CS have perfect Linux support and it may worth a try

      CS does not, sadly. Its the one game i have to dual boot for. The native Version doesnt really get treated equally as the win version and is a bit slower. If you wanna try to play a bit more competitive, you will sadly feel the difference, though the linux version is working fine for casual play.

        Sorry to hear it. I’m a casual player and the Linux performance worked well for me. If playing CS competitively, the little difference in performance is crucial.

        I used to play a lot of Apex before the Linux ban, and have since moved on to Overwatch 2 which works perfectly with proton.

        My wife and most of my friends were super supportive and also dropped Apex when they blocked Linux, even though they all use windows. Playing with friends has made Overwatch far more fun than I remember from playing years ago!
