I haven’t gotten this to work on my steam deck yet. I switched to proton experimental and am experiencing the screen freezing after about 20 seconds.
anyone else experience this?

Maybe try deleting the game prefix so it can reset it. With developer options turned on hit the gear menu for the game and choose “delete proton files” from the developer menu there.

This is the best summary I could come up with:
So far, I haven’t seen anything official from the developer to confirm it was actually enabled intentionally, and I purposefully held off on this initially but it’s been a few days and it’s continued working.
I tend to err on the side of caution, since we’ve seen other games with EAC previously work without knowing why and then break again shortly after.
Hopefully THE FINALS will continue working, since it’s so popular with it regularly seeing over 90,000 people (peak count) playing on Steam each day.
However, now it actually works, testing can be done and so Valve can fix up issues in Proton, and developers on the various Linux graphics drivers as they get reported.
There’s lots of reports filling up on ProtonDB now too from people playing it across Linux Desktop and Steam Deck.
Today I reached out to Embark Studios for a statement, so hopefully their team will be able to let us all know what’s happening with it officially.
