2 days ago I made a post that the game would not run on a Linux desktop PC (but it would on the Steam Deck). 10 hours ago they released an update that resolves this issue and makes the game run through Proton on a Linux desktop PC.

- The Beta now supports players on Linux thru Proton

I can confirm it does run and I just did the short tutorial. I still have to play more, but wanted to inform anyone who is interested into the game.

    I have yet to play, only did the tutorial for quick testing. So I don’t speak from personal experience, but from what I read so far.

    Its more or less like the Splitgate 1. But they have a new game engine to better support and work on it (that’s why its a new entry in series, instead an update). Some people say they don’t like the hero abilities they added into. I don’t know to what extend this is and how game dependent these are. But one huge plus point to me is a map creator for the community. One of the biggest issues I had in game 1 was that not enough content and maps were available.

    On the negative side is, that there is a Battle Pass. At least for me this is negative, but the game is Free to Play. I assume everyone who liked the first game will like this one too, but can’t be sure right now. They also seem to have too many players for their servers.
