Tecmint's 6 Best Linux Distros for Gaming and Playing Windows Games

“The good news is that gaming on Linux has improved dramatically in recent years. Besides the many native Linux titles already available, you can also play a huge selection of Windows-only games using compatibility tools like Proton (built into Steam) and Wine. In fact, nearly 80% of the most popular Windows games now run on Linux with little to no extra effort.”

For myself, I've been using Manjaro Linux the last few years, and I am playing all the games I've needed to so far on Linux. My list includes:

* Snowrunner

* War Thunder multiplayer

* Ships at Sea

* Assetto Corsa EVO

* Assetto Corsa Competizione

* BeamNG Drive

* Train Fever

* Euro Truck Sim in multiplayer

* American Truck Sim

* FORZA Horizon 4

* Hell Let Loose

* Red Dead Redemption II

* Dirt Rally 2.0

* rFactor 2

* Train Sim World 5

All in all, it is 77 games, so I have more than enough to keep me playing. I've not got Microsoft Flight Sim 2024 so cannot comment on that one, but the only one that I think did not play for me on Linux was World of Subways 3.
