Got this from a post on the alien site. From previous discussion on Lemmy it sounded like Linux users had good things to say about this game but were discouraged about the upcoming FaceIt implementation such that they wouldn’t be able to join anticheat enabled matches. Those users and Linux gamers on the fence would probably appreciate hearing this news.
With this announcement on the dev team’s community Discord, it appears Linux users will NOT lose access to matches with anticheat.

What possesses people to implement shit like this? Inshallah battlebit developers crumble to dust.
There’s 3 people working on this game and there’s hundreds of cheaters popping up every other day. It’s a massive load.
Especially when they also have to deal with DDOS attacks as they try to keep their servers alive for so many people too.
It’s 100% warranted and I’m glad they still saved a path for Linux. Even if it’s like, “You must be on the STEAM Kernal” or something, it might unlock a path for other anti-cheat to have some sort of access on Linux as well.
