Steam is in your software center, just install it from there. You'll want to tick the "Enable steamplay for all other titles" checkbox in the settings, Steamplay tab.
To check for compatibility, just go to protonDB.com, search for the game you want, and look at the rating.
Just by looking at user reports that have similar hardware to yours, so in general the same kind of GPU, you can get all the tweaks you might need to run the game.
If it's a launch argument, you can just add it by right clicking a game in your library, going to Properties, and pasting that argument in the launch options line.
If it's a specific version of Proton, you can change that version in the "COmpatibiity" tab, by ticking the "force the use of a specific version" checkbox.
To install Proton GE, you can head over to the GE Proton Github page.
There, you click on the releases box, and you can just download the version you need.
Extract it in your .steam/steam/compatibilitytools.d folder (create it if needed)
What about the Epic Games Store? Well, we have an amazing solution here as well. The best one on Linux is using an unofficial client called Heroic.
TO install Heroic, either search your software store, or, if it doesn't appear there, head over to their website to grab one of the versions they offer.
Now, let's move on to Origin, and Ubisoft connect. These other launchers are best handled through Lutris.
To get started with adding your Origin or Ubisoft games, just click the Origin, or Ubisoft icon in the sidebar, and then the small "user" icon next to it. You'll get a login window, and once you're singed in, your list of games will appear in the main window.
Click a game, and then the install button in the bottom of the app to install it.
Then there's battle.net. This one doesn't have an unofficial client, and doesn't have easy integrations like what Lutris offers, but you can still install it easily, through Lutris itself.
Just click the main menu, and then "Add Game". Click "search lutris" and then type Battle.net, and then click install, and follow the prompts.
For GoG, you can just use the Heroic Games Launcher I already mentioned. It supports using your GoG account, by clicking on the Manage Accounts button in the sidebar.
And then, there's FSR. This is a tool from AMD, but you can use it on any GPU, and it lets you render a game at a lower resolution, and upscale it to the native resolution of your display, so you're saving some GPU and CPU power, but the end result looks pretty close to the real thing. For example, you could play a Tomb Raider game, rendering it at 720p, but it would be upscaled to 1080p to mach your monitor.
With Linux, you can add FSR support to basically every game, even the ones that don't support it natively.
FOr Steam, you'll need to use GE Proton, and add this argument:
WINE_FULLSCREEN_FSR=1 %command%
You can just add it in the game's properties, in the launch options box
For Heroic, use GE Proton, and check the "Enable FSR" box in the game's settings, in the Other tab.
On Lutris, just check the "Enable AMD FidelityFX super resolution" switch in the Runner Options. - Věda a technologie

@thelinuxexperiment it's nice you showed people the manual way, for hidden files and such, however ProtonUp allows folks to do all that with simple point and click, it installs different protons, luxtorpeda, boxtron, etc to make people's lives easier
4:45 In one of your previous videos you said that mainstream distros are sometimes not enough so we need gaming ones... Bit contradict, eh? EDITH: Are you or YT deleting my other comments?
A big problem with linux gaming is the lack of support for blizzard games. The classics like Starcraft, Starcraft 2, diablo, WoW, and Warcraft I, II, and III aren't really playable on linux without tons of know-how that could take you weeks to figure out, and may break in the next update.
This is great. Wish more Linux CZcamsrs did this kind of user focused stuff and less elitist things. Not that that's bad. Just wish that there were more Nicks in the world.
Hahaha thanks ;) Tutorials don't do super well on youtube, bur they're definitely needed!
I agree, most linux youtubers are just about "terminal this" and "window manager that", seeing more user focused videos with better production value would be great.
Check out this channel, lots of gaming related content and tutorials czcams.com/channels/nqSp58K39q1kz7G3PyvA5g.html
Gaming is one of the most elitist things there is. I have 3 Linux computers and none of them can play any games. Basically if you don't have a pretty new and powerful computer you can't play games.
Do what I did and follow in his footsteps. More videos means more chance of people seeing this information. My videos aren't anywhere near as high quality as Nick's but just like him I fact check and confirm while also stating the obsolete. Do it yourself. Not as hard as it sounds. Don't even need to edit but get used to constant takes.
Linux is where most of us are heading when Windows becomes a subscription as opposed to an operating system, so any instructional tips to help us get better familiar with it is definitely helpful.
i still wouldn't use linux look at all the hoops you have to go through just to play a game lol.
@@userunknown1030 Looks way too easy for me. Is your IQ in the two digits or something?
@@userunknown1030People will need to drop windows in order for there to be enough backlash against the predatory practices of windows. I'm also finding it more difficult to switch than I'd like, but I'd rather deal with that than the spyware that is Windows 11.
@@userunknown1030u only have to do it once then u get to play the game forever
@@Ivanzoffthewall oh i get that but that is the reason most regular people wont ever switch from mac or windows until it is as flawless as it is with those two jump right in and have everything work for little to no effort linux will remain a glorified ms/dos and nothing more.
I have nothing but gratitude for the people who have created these tools to let us play Windows games on Linux.
Although some games just won't run (Anti-cheat problems, etc.), I have been able to play some of my favorite games, and even the games I've wanted to play.
Just a big, big thank you. 😀
Yeah, the situation is pretty awesome right now!! I'm so grateful to the wine, dxvk and all other tool's developers for this!
My compliments, Nick! I'm no newbe to Linux and gaming so I was mainly watching critically but you did an absolutely brilliant job explaining everything very clearly without cutting corners or generalizing too much. That's a huge accomplishment as this material can be a rabbit hole very quickly. Great work!!
Thanks a lot 😊
yep I agree :)
@@TheLinuxEXP what linux distro is shown in this video
ProtonUp is also worth mentioning, which makes it incredible easy to update Proton GE versions in example.
This is a super helpful guide to getting started. Easy to follow along and gets right to the point, which is getting us gaming on Linux. The amount of progress that has been made on the Linux gaming front is mind boggling. Proton, Heroic and DXVK are all projects that only got started a few years ago.
I do believe that you can also get FSR going through Valve's Gamescope compositor, which is a really cool piece of code as well. It basically spoofs a virtual monitor inside a window, allowing you all manner of trickery, such as forcing borderless mode even in games that don't support such a feature. It's based on Wayland however, which can act a little funky with gaming at times.
Good coverage! I liked how you covered everything without telling anyone to pull up a terminal and start running commands. That is still what so many people assume they need to do to game on Linux thanks to a lot of older guides out there as well as new guides that that keep referring to it. Your approach should make it much more accessible to those gaming enthusiasts that will not pull up a terminal no matter what we tell them.
I've been EXTREMELY hesitant to try any form of Linux, but after I hearing about Pop OS and watching a couple of TLE's videos, not to mention the direction Microsoft is continuing to take with Windows... I'm thinking that I'm sold on the idea of trying out Linux on a future PC build.
Windows 11 telemetry and increased ad usage is going to be a nightmare.
No need to wait for a new pc, you can try even on a live USB without installing it.
@@ozertayiz I think I'll pass, I'd rather not risk fucking up any my PC's parts by playing with a new OS like it was plug and play. Just 'upgrading' from one version of Windows to another has fucked anything from a PC's MOBO to it's GPU... I plan on having a 2nd PC in my setup sooo I'll wait.
@@spectralcanvasimages Pop OS IS plug and play though, even more so than Windows. It installs in a couple minutes and works out of the box. Simply changing OS will not cause any harm to components. They may have driver issues here or there depending on which one you select, but it won't cause them to "fuck up" as you say. Pop OS has the same limitations as Windows when it comes to hardware safety because that is all baked into the firmware of the devices and your MOBO, not the OS. For instance, you can change power limits on Nvidia GPUs with a simple command. But you absolutely cannot exceed the firmware limit. It will throw an error back and say that it's above the limit and refuse to listen. Just like Windows applications.
If anything, you're much less likely to "fuck up hardware" on Linux because it does not install a ton of bloatware that tries to control different devices. It installs necessary drivers if pre-selected, or what drivers you want after install, and that's it. It has no power to do anything to your hardware that you don't tell it to do.
@@spectralcanvasimagesdual boot exists 💀
You're an angel. There aren't many tutorials out there as informative and easy to follow as this one. You just straight up told to my face that I shouldn't worry about the distribution, while I've been looking for months for a gaming one
I played Genshin Impact on Linux (try at your own risk, anti cheat and all that) and it ran not only better than in windows but at better quality. I got so surprised when I saw that.
Thanks for this very informative video on gaming with Linux. Just switched from Win10 to Linux Mint and this was very helpful. Keep up the good work!
Glad it helped!
It's been a month since you've posted this. How has your experience been?
it's 4 months since you've posted this:
what's up with mint?:)
Even after gaming on Linux for a full year, this video was super informative. Thanks a lot, man!
You're welcome!
Man, is it worth it ?
Yes !!!
@@henriquedelben
What is your take on gaming on Linux? I have a good 200 steam games I'm wondering if linux would be a problem to run them
Brilliant! A Linux gaming guide after a long time. I mean from not just you, from any Linux CZcamsr. A very good one - detailed and not scaring with complicated stuffs. This uptodate guide is gonna help many new users.
I hope so!
This is wonderful. Just what I was searching for a long time. Short all-in-one presentation of "how to enter into linux gaming". Very informative and not confusing. Thanks.
I had tried a handful of times to switch from Windows to Linux over the past 20 or so years but always ran into some big hurdles with gaming, and had to switch back. It's not perfect, but the advances shown in this video are simply incredible! Thanks for putting all this together.
The last 2 years of Linux have vastly improved gaming wise
I've been waiting for YOU specifically to make a guide about this. Great at explaining this stuff finally I have a video to send to my friends whenever they wanna do this👍🏼
Thanks Nick! This is an excellent easy-to-follow beginners guide. I've attempted a deep dive into Linux gaming before, but quickly realised i wasn't experienced enough to start tweaking everything and that i should stick to the basics for now :D
Thank you for this detailed tutorial video,gaming on Linux has improved at a gigantic pace in the last few years,it will improve even more in the long run,currently running Arch Linux with all of these tweaks applied and can say than in many cases games run better under Linux then under Windows.
It's crazy how fast thongs are moving, yeah!
I really like your guides - this one and the recent guide on Gnome configuration are well structured and easy to follow, while still presenting a lot of detail. Please do more. Thanks!
Overviews like this really help the newcomers with settling with Linux. Thank you!
Finally! I've been playing with the idea of switching to Linux for a while now. But every time I look in forums for starting points to begin my journey with Linux gaming, I quickly feel put off again and again. The sheer amount of abbreviations, technical terms and intricacies as well as the abundance of applications/software to choose from is staggering. It always gives me the impression that it would be better for me to stay away from Linux gaming (or from Linux in general) as a mere mortal.
Thank you, Nick, for this Video!
You're welcome! I hope it helps!
These steps might seem unintuitive and cumbersome, but it used to be way worse until recently (for me at least). It's gotten a lot better and will continue to get better as pc gaming gravitates more towards linux. all we need to do is accelerate the inevitable by hopping on to the linux gaming train.
Yeah I remember first trying out Linux back in 2007. Steam had to be emulated using Wine, and getting the original Counter-Strike to run (albeit without sound) felt like an accomplishment. The attitude back then was "if you're a gamer, you *have* to dual boot, otherwise don't bother with Linux." Nowadays it's more "if you're a gamer, you'll only need to dual boot if you want to play certain games."
PC with Linux is still a PC. PC is hardware, not sofware.
Linux will never be mainstream
@@IsmailofeRegime certain games like the biggest franchise of all time in call of duty , fortnite, destiny, and so many more.
@@ghostlegit To be fair the problem with those games is the anti-cheat software used, not whether the games themselves can run using Proton.
Thank you, especially for a closer look on FSR integration. By the way, since you've mentioned GE and his exceptional effort, he has a distro of his own - Nobara, fully customized and optimised according to his view of doing gaming on linux. Maybe you'll find it interesting.
This will be super useful for many. Also, I think Lutris needs a walkthrough all by itself with all the options it has.
Awesome video as always! Exactly what the community needs in my opinion;
Easy step by step guides for someone who's just starting out.
I'm sure it'll help a lot of people out 👍
I hope so!
Thanks for making this video!! I've been looking for guides/tips for playing games outside of steam
You're welcome :) You should have everything you need with this video!
A really fresh new way of presenting Linux Gaming. Feels really lightweight how you bring your content clear and well structured to the Audience. Especially for old Windows Veterans. Currently using Arch Linux on my Jailbroken Ps4. Hard to get through all of this configuration to start gaming. But so much improvement over the years with a great contributor community to make Linux enjoyable.
Been playing on Linux more and more. Thanks for all the info and hard work nick! Keep it up
Very helpful video, thanks! Great to see all these options for Linux gaming and how easy it has become to play all these games. BTW, your latest steam deck video convinced me to pre-order one. Now I can't wait to get it 😁
It's amazing how fast it's progressed! Glad you liked the video 😁
Nick is my favorite french man. I like his episodes more, than any french comedy along side with the valuable messages he delivers to the world. As always get that like button.
Thanks a lot, buddy!
Je savais pas qu'il est français
this is the best video i've seen in this topic. Everything explained in 20 min, thank you for this :)
This is exactly what I needed to see! Been wanting to make the switch and now I can. Thank you so much!
Great and informative. The only thing holding me back is laziness really as I have a SteamDeck now and that is my Linux gaming machine. The control settings being integrated is a great boon.
my God this video is so perfect! Thanks a lot for this detailed explanation, Nick! It'll certainly motivate more people to explore gaming on Linux, like me
Glad it helps 😊
Thank you very much. You are one of the best CZcamsrs who talk about Linux. You helped a lot in spreading the general culture about Linux. I have been following your channel for two years. I am an Arab from Egypt and I enjoyed watching your videos and learning from them. Thank you very much I hope to provide more creativity ❤️❤️
Great video, glad to see you went further than just steam and gave the best options for things like origin and Uplay
great video! i think you should've mentioned ProtonUp-Qt, its a program that lets you automatically install or delete custom proton versions (like proton-ge, but also some others like proton tkg, boxtron, or luxtorpeda) without having to manually install them to your steam directory.
Yes, ProtonUp-Qt makes managing ge-proton and other compatibility tools much easier.
Thanks for the guide. I wished I had this earlier this year when I attempted switching over to Linux. I hope you can update this guide every 2 years or so. Linux is constantly changing and lots of guides I found were outdated and not applicable any more.
Oh yeah, I'll redo it when things evolve!
Awesome. Simple but not trivial tutorial. You show options not force one, and said witch you user. Just perfect!
I try to install Linux for gaming a month ago, and look what happens a month later!! Thanks a lot for the video, this will get me up and running for gaming on Linux
Something i've never seen people mentioning on videos, if you want to install a steam game on a secondary drive, that secondary drive must be formatted as a Linux format (ext4, etc). Games don't open if the drive is NTFS. I always forget about this.
I believe even Linus can follow this guide.
The one video I didn't know I was desperately waiting for... but I was!
Thanks a LOT
Damn dude, this was awesome. Thanks for posting. I am not new to Linux gaming, but always on the look out for hot tips I may have missed.
Thanks a lot! This is the best video I have ever seen to help new Linux users have fun gaming in their new OS.
You're welcome ;)
Incredible video - didn't know about FSR until now. Just ran to my computer to try it out!
Nice! Have fun with it, it's super powerful!
I am pretty experienced with Linux gaming, I did learn two things about enabling FSR though. This was a well put together video.
I am new to Linux gaming and found this to be very helpful. I hope you do more on this subject for us newbies. Thanks!
I'm not really a gamer myself but I really like when this kind of thing happens to the Linux world. Hopefully one day more gamers will come to Linux so game devs gonna notice Linux and we don't have to use proton anymore.
BTW you're one of those CZcamsrs whom I give thumbs up before I even watch the full video I know it's gonna be good as always and you never disappoint me.
Thank you very much!
I highly recommend Nobara Linux for those that mainly use their system for gaming. It's based on Fedora, but has a ton of tweaks and the most important dependencies for gaming already installed. It's maintained by the same guy who makes the modded Proton version so it all works very well. I noticed less input lag as well as better Nvidia driver support.
yeah this is and many other things keep me from moving to linux. still got many hoops to jump through just to do basic things. i get some people like if that way but i am not one. it been around long enough to have worked out all these kinks but they haven't it a shame it really is.
Great video, Nick.
I've been playing in Linux for a month now, and my experience has been very pleasant (even using Nvidia). The vast majority of my Steam library runs flawlessly.
Excellent video! Thanks for this. Now I can play my favorite game on Linux.
Awesome video! I would also love a separate video on emulation someday, like Lutris, Retroarch or Highscore on GNOME
Thanks! I will definitely cover that later!
That's really nice, maybe a part 2 for multiplayer/anticheat games are needed but this video is THE tutorial everyone will send to someone until there's a huge change in Linux gaming. Thanks!
Unfortunately if it’s an anticheat issue there really isn’t anything you can do if the games anti cheat doesn’t support Linux or in the case the anticheat supports it but the developers decide not to configure it to be able to. At that point it’s up to the developers and not us and unfortunately a lot of developers are so out of the loop that they still have that stigma of most players who play on Linux only do it to hopefully circumvent the anti cheat to be able to cheat in games when that is far from the truth. Most cheaters use windows. Only like .1% of cheaters probably use Linux if that.
Awesome video. I've thought about switching to Linux for years and it seems like the gaming circumstances have improved a lot, especially with Proton. I'm excited to switch at some point before the year is out.
Great video. Thanks for the clear, useable info. Off to my. gaming rig to start applying these.
Gaming on Linux is finally getting there. Just one major hurdle left to overcome: anti-cheat. I'm confident that will be overcome as well though, eventually.
I'd suggest not supporting games with anti cheat or DRM. Although there are proton ge versions that support at least a few of them...
@@squidbeard492so you want Hackers to roam freely??
@@X_RayLT you mean they don't with anticheat?
You didn't mention how to tell if a game isn't working because Steam is trying to run the Linux version of a game (e.g. Dead Island: Definitive Edition), which has been abandoned by the developers & no-longer works, and instead getting it to run the Windows version (via Proton). This wasn't at all obvious to me when I first started, and nearly put me off using Linux for games at all. (ProtonDB lists Dead Island as Platinum, which is rather misleading, and there is only one cryptic comment about the Linux version being broken - but nothing to say how to check if you're using that, nor how to change it.)
Deep dive. A lot of hard work to produce that, I appreciate it. Thanks Nick.
You're welcome 😊
very, very well done. short, informative, condensed. two thumbs up
riot games: 💀
Why not protonup-qt? That should be used instead of manually configuring wine and proton like you did with steam. Especially with heroic as well
They also really need to collaborate between lutris and heroic imo. Especially since heroic browses the store at least for gog and epic so far but they're planning more iirc
It should be integrated natively, yeah. I just wanted to avoid adding yet another tool to the list!
@@TheLinuxEXP still makes it a lot easier than that method imo XD
Well, man, you did it again, you surprised me 🤣
Thought I knew already some tricks, I learned a lot of things and I will try them 👍
Thanks for your content ☺️
Looking forward to calling PC gamers master race, Linux gamers master race 😁👌. But seriously, gaming has been always an essential part part of home computing. Being unable to play favorite games was a huge game stopper for Linux adoption. Pun intended 😁😁😁.
Thanks for the video 🙂👍!
Yeah, Gaming on Linux has progressed so much!
@@TheLinuxEXP that's really true. Sometimes a problem can be solved on its own, while you're procrastinating 😉. Meanwhile I got into retro gaming thanks Linux ports.
6 yrs of Gaming on Linux, So happy i made the jump early. All my games worked early on so i was fortunate.
Fantastic video as always; really clear instructions that helped a lot. thank you.
Clear, understandable, overall great content and helped a lot. Thank you!
I didn't know so much information of Linux gaming before! Thanks for organizing these info!
Glad you liked it!
I have so much problems with windows on my new built PC, your video might save me, i'll try gaming on linux for sure
Just stopped by to thank you for this! Keep up the great job!
You're welcome!
Thanks for including the section on GE Proton - had been meaning to figure out how to install it but never got round to taking the time to figuring it out
Also hadn't heard of Heroic until now, had been using Epic through Lutris but this seems to be a much nicer solution
Gamescope is worth looking at. It handles image scaling and fsr for you. It's used a the default Window Manager for gaming mode in SteamOS.
Best video ever!! I totally needed this
🐐
Merci beaucoup pour cette vidéo. J'utilise sérieusement une distribution Linux depuis un mois seulement et votre chaîne m'a beaucoup aidé dans ma décision. Cela faisait un moment que je m'intéressait à Linux et je dois avouer que c'est seulement quand j'ai reçu ma Steam Deck que j'ai fait le plongeon, parce que c'était le gaming qui était le frein et la raison principale de rester sur Windows, hors la Steam Deck était la preuve pour moi que le gaming était devenue plus accessible sur Linux. Mais votre chaîne est une de celles qui m'a fait naître un intérêt grandissant et une fenêtre donnant une vue sur un autre chose que Windows, si je puis dire.
Content de pouvoir être utile!
This is a much needed video. Thank you Nick
Awesome! The hardest part for me was setting up my GPU underclock on NVidia. I remember the instructions on the Arch Wiki didn't work on Manjaro, so after a lot of trial and error I got it to work somehow
This is the best video on the topic, thank you so much!
Thanks for the video.
You are way better they everyone I have watched, on how to game in linux. You get major points for not using the terminal only way of installing software.
what a video, you just explained everything i was looking for, thank you
Very Nice video man! well explained!! thanks for doing this type of content!
This is EXACTLY what I'm looking for right now. I'm planning to retire an old Windows XP machine I use for some old favourite games and move them to a Linux box. Perfect 👌🏻
This is really helpful. Thank you for sharing this.
Thanks for the guide man I was waiting for this thing since a long time
I'm glad it helped!
You explained everything so well. Good video!
Bravo!
Learned some new things here and the comments also shared other great programs! I hated Lutris at first because I didn't know how to get my steam library from my :D drive (sdb2) to show up. But then I was able to get GTA San Andreas (not the definitive version) to work when Steam failed to run even with different Protons. I'm a happy camper.
Very nice. Thanks for this content; it was very helpful.
Been using Linux off and on for the past 20 yrs.. boy oh boy remember the days of trying to get games and stuff to work in vanilla wine..... LOOOL what a nightmare it was back then.. then Valve came along and man in the last decade everything has changed so much compared to the early/mid 2000s. in fact this is the first year I have been able to daily drive Linux (Arch BTW) for most this year.. think going on 9 months of daily driving with very little windows use.. excited to see where we go in the coming years! Great Video btw :)
Amazing video!!! I was recently looking for something like this. Thanks
You're welcome!
Wow this made it really simple. I can't thank you enough!!
Great video ! Using Windows for gaming and Linux for everything else it gave me the will to try full Linux, maybe soon ! Thank you ! Merci !
Awesome video, thanks do much! So far I have only used and only wanted to use steam to play my games but you showed me here what lutris and heroic actually are. I was hesitant to give them a shot but seeing they still use the same proton as steam makes me less scared
Thank you for making this.
I'm setting up a gaming Linux PC this week.
Nice!
Thank you for the info about linux. I haven't really tried the OS but i will try it with my old pc here.
I haven't used GNU/L for years. Thanks to you I have now a quick and full update
This guide is super helpful! Thank you so much!
You're welcome!
I'm still pretty new, only been using Pop OS for about a year as a daily driver, but I had an issue where Steam wouldn't let me add my secondary drive as a game library because it wouldn't find the directory. Turns out the terminal grabbed the flatpak instead of the deb version, which didn't have the specific file path I was looking for. Thanks for all the videos, I've enjoyed learning Linux, even with all the issues and quirks I've run into, it's been fun
I absolutely love your channel, thank you so much
Glad you enjoy it!
Really good summary! Still hope that setting up things gets less steps in the future but I think it's looking promising!
Great video as always nick!
