The game is listed as 'Platinum' on ProtonDB: https://www.protondb.com/app/1808500

Arc raiders is steam deck verifiied, so it should run great on Linux.

I'm on CachyOS atm, and the setup just required hitting the install button. I'm gonna be honest, this game runs incredibly good, even on my laptop. I'm getting well over 100fps stable, and I've got it on High settings with DLSS on Quality, but framgen off. I'm gonna test it for a few more matches, then see if I can crank it to Ultra and turn DLSS off.

it was also just Steam Deck verified.

Can't speak for myself as I haven't played it, but a good place I like to check is Protondb. Their page for Arc Raiders says it should be fully compatible :)

Obviously the folks posting at protondb can't speak for anyone so hopefully some folks here have some helpful anecdotes!

It just got Steam Deck verified.

I have 82 hours and crashed once during a match early on. Otherwise flawless performance and experience.

Oh there is a small stutter when quest cutscenes begin to play for the first time but that's not bad.

Running perfectly on Bazzite with a 4090.

The only issue I encountered is that the game really doesn’t like being installed to a second drive. The anti cheat throws a hissy fit about paths.

I've been playing it the past few weeks with no issue, I'm on Garuda Linux with Hyprland. I have a 7900 XTX. The have runs at a consistent 100fps for about 2 hours then I start to get frame hitches where I drop down to 40. Just restarting the game fixes that issue for me.

I ran into a tiny problem while playing it on Linux Mint. The game would freeze after a certain ammount of time, but increasing the max_map_count to that of the steamdeck fixed it. (Mint has a really low default one)

Now its running without problems.

EndeavourOS. Zero configuration, zero issues, solid 120 FPS on my rig and about to hit 50 hours. My default is Proton Experimental.

It works fine.

Arch

The setup was install it and press play.

I did add the ENVs for HDR.

If anyone knows an easier way to manage all of my steam game's wine versions and command line arguments, lmk

Been playing it since beta test on Bazzite. No tinkering just click install and play.

Arc Raiders runs flawlessly on Linux.

Arch.

No steps required.

Protondb exists for a reason.

I'm on arch and it works great

EndeavourOS, ProtonGE.

Zero issues since server slam.

Some people report crashes but it works for me on GE Proton 10-24. On Arch btw.

I'm running it on Bazzite, and it mostly runs great.

I've been dealing with a bug that has apparently been around since the beta, but it's not Linux-specific. Sometimes, the game crashes due to a corrupted file. Verifying the install from Steam fixes the issue, but it seems to pop up randomly. I've had days without issues, and days where it happens 2-3 raids in a row.

Works fine for me on gnome/ubuntu/nvidia, altho it crashes if I tab out while a map is loading

Lutris on NixOS! It runs fairly well, though sometimes Steam doesn't start up at all. No crashes mid-game so far.

Running fantastically on Linux Mint just changing to proton experimental

I have been having crashes consistently on Linux that I don't get on windows, personally. But seems more like a me issue as most people say it runs great.
