This right here. I’ve spent a few hours troubleshooting why I can’t play Hell Let Loose, which also uses EAC, even though it should support Linux. Turned out, that you need to specifically search for (in your Library) and install “Proton EasyAntiCheat Runtime”, which is a separate game that for some reason didn’t get installed when you install the game.
I suppose it’s going to be the same with Battlebit, because I’m sure I played it on Linux and had 0 issues.
It runs amazingly on linux, I have about 40 hours on the official release, and about 200on the beta all linux.
I tried like 6 Proton versions when there was that F2P weekend and it was impossible even to get the anticheat installer to work on Ubuntu 22.04.
IDK what I was doing wrong.
Ubuntu, there is your answer.
On a serious note, are you sure you had the anticheat runtimes installed?

Not even with the stupid runtime worked me back then…
I remember trying that too. It was something you install via Steam, right?
When you switch proton versions, it might be a good idea to delete the prefix directory. I find that helps.
