Answer List

Games Confirmed Working on Linux

This page surfaces the cleaner Linux wins. Every title listed here currently has a desktop Linux status of works, which makes it a stronger candidate for a Linux-first library than games that only work with caveats or still depend on broken anti-cheat paths.

Quick answer

Treat these as the easiest games to bring with you to Linux, not as a guarantee that every setup is identical. A title can be confirmed working and still deserve one real-session test on your own launcher, GPU, controller, saves, and online mode before you remove Windows.

Confirmed working means the current desktop Linux signal is positive, not that every edge case is solved forever.
Higher-confidence entries are better first tests for a Linux migration weekend.
Retest after major patches, launcher changes, or anti-cheat updates even for games that look safe today.

Current answer set

Each row links to the full game page so you can move from a fast answer to a real migration decision with tests, fallback guidance, and the current source trail.

What confirmed working means here

This list only includes games whose current desktop Linux status is works. That is a stronger signal than a generic Proton anecdote because it reflects the merged dataset after anti-cheat and current desktop behavior are considered together. It is the right place to start when you want confidence-building first tests instead of blocker hunting.

That said, good migration decisions still come from testing the exact conditions you use. Linux gaming quality can change with launcher updates, new GPU drivers, kernel changes, or online-service updates. The value of this page is that it starts you from the cleaner end of the catalog.

How to use this page in a migration plan

Start by checking whether your weekly games appear here. If they do, use them as the first proof that Linux can cover the fun part of the machine. Then move to the harder titles: games with tweaks, custom launchers, or anti-cheat sensitivity. The migration decision becomes easier when the first tests are stable and repeatable.

If one must-play title is missing or blocked, keep the fallback small and explicit. Linux can still become the main OS even when one title stays on Windows. The point is to shrink the Windows-only surface deliberately, not to pretend every publisher has already met you halfway.

How to read the trust signals below

Confidence, freshness, and source links matter because Linux compatibility changes over time. A high-confidence record checked recently is a better candidate for a first migration test than a low-confidence record that has not been revisited in months. Use the table to choose the safest first tests for your own machine.

After the first successful session, document what worked: launcher, Proton version if relevant, controller setup, cloud saves, and graphics settings. A reproducible setup is what turns one good evening into a dependable long-term Linux path.
