Blocked by anti-cheatSteam Machine: Unsupported

Its anti-cheat (Anti-Cheat Expert) is not working on Linux for this game, so it won't run properly even where Proton otherwise could handle it. Anti-Cheat Expert runs on Linux in 4 other games Sifter tracks — so this is a per-game decision rather than a limit of the anti-cheat.

Valve rates it Unsupported on Steam Machine. Valve marks it Unsupported on SteamOS.
