I am relocating

I previously used Pop OS, Manjaro, and Ubuntu several years ago. Now I’m back to Windows for gaming thanks to Battleye anticheat and an easy anticheat solution. My main concern is whether only one of my games functions on Linux via Wine or Proton, while a virtual machine should support it. Also, will BF 2042 run on Linux somehow?

I question whether 2042 will function on Linux without altering certain components, as my understanding is that changes to the core could affect its operation.

EAC and Battleye become even more concerned in a virtual environment. Real hardware remains the best option for these titles.

There are methods to hide your virtual machine using KVM security measures. The r/VFIO community offers helpful resources, though setting this up may be challenging for beginners.

Valve mentioned they were addressing issues with anti-cheat systems not functioning on Linux, even though their Steam Deck is built for Linux.

They are continuing development together with the game creators.

They've mentioned it for a while now, yet there hasn't been any real progress. It feels more like waiting to see how things unfold. I think they're planning to leverage Steam Deck sales to pressure companies into making concessions.

If you upgrade your VM and VFIO passes your card, it should work fine. Just don’t rely on it—bans can still happen. Nvidia can be entertaining sometimes, so consider Arch or Arco instead of Manjaro (that’s not recommended). Avoid Debian-based setups as they make things a bit more challenging.
