• HowTo Geek ☛ Valve's Proton compatibility layer brings 19 more games to Linux

  The Proton compatibility layer has helped bring many PC games to Linux, and it's updated regularly with new features and improvements. Now, Proton 10.0-4 has arrived with 19 new compatible games and a pile of bug fixes.

  Proton is based on the Wine open-source project, and Wine 11 was just released with significant performance improvements, better support for Wayland and 64-bit ARM devices, and many more changes. Proton is still using Wine 10 as a foundation, though—we'll have to wait a bit longer for the upgrade to Wine 11.

  Proton 10.0-4 adds several more games to the list of playable titles, all of which were previously functional on Proton Experimental. The full list is below, with a mix of standard PC titles and VR games. Linux gamers can finally do virtual reality medical malpractice in Surgeon Simulator: Experience Reality or play through some dungeons in Fellowship.

• XDA ☛ Valve's Proton 10.0-4 update introduces a new wave of games to Linux

  Once upon a time, gaming on Linux was a better joke than it was a feasible means of playing your favorite titles. However, over the years, Linux has gotten better and better, and Valve's adoption of the operating system for its portable console, the Steam Deck, only accelerated things. Now you can get an entire Linux gaming operating system that fed-up Windows 11 users are discovering for the first time.

  Unfortunately, as far as Linux has come, there are still some games that don't work on it. The good news is, unlike the early days, we no longer have to wait for the developers to make their games Linux-friendly. Instead, we can run it through Proton and have it do all the hard work. Now, a new update to the operating system has brought in a new wave of games that have just become Linux playable.

• Linux gaming: How Valve is systematically softening the pressure to upgrade to Windows 11 with Proton 10.0-4

  Valve continues unwaveringly on its course. Proton 10.0-4 is a new stable version of the compatibility layer that makes Windows games run on Linux and is much more than a routine maintenance update. It is another step in a long-term strategy that aims to gradually make Windows obsolete as a mandatory gaming platform without openly fighting it.
