Anyone know if Helldivers 2 works on Linux now? Because I'd say if I can't stick with 10 much longer then I'm just going to format that partition.


Yes: https://www.protondb.com/app/553850

Personally I have been playing it on Arch Linux since release and it has always worked just fine, besides it being a deeply janky game regardless of OS.


Ditto. No issues at all that my friends did not experience as well. (Long download/patching times).


“Crashes for me every 10 minutes into a game.”


Funny enough, this is the game compatibility that convinced me that Linux was worthwhile switching over to.

With Arch Linux + the nvidia-open package, the Linux desktop experience is miles better than when I last tried in 2017 with Ubuntu


It worked on Linux since basically day 1, though I haven't played it in awhile so who knows if things have broken since then.


I've been playing it on linux since I started. Just run steam, install, Start.

Happy diving.


Thanks going to give it a try then. Since I already use VMs for Windows-required development activities, this may be the final days of dual booting for me.
