Now, Proton 10.0-4 has arrived with 19 new compatible games and a pile of bug fixes.<\/p>\n<p>Proton is based on the Wine open-source project, and Wine 11 was just released with significant performance improvements, better support for Wayland and 64-bit ARM devices, and many more changes. Proton is still using Wine 10 as a foundation, though\u2014we&#8217;ll have to wait a bit longer for the upgrade to Wine 11.<\/p>\n<p>Proton 10.0-4 adds several more games to the list of playable titles, all of which were previously functional on Proton Experimental. The full list is below, with a mix of standard PC titles and VR games. Linux gamers can finally do virtual reality medical malpractice in Surgeon Simulator: Experience Reality or play through some dungeons in Fellowship.<\/p>\n<p><strong>New playable games in Proton 10.0-4<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>\n                                        Surgeon Simulator: Experience Reality\n                        <\/li>\n<li>\n                                        Changeling VR\n                        <\/li>\n<li>\n                                        Summoners War: RUSH\n                        <\/li>\n<li>\n                                        Quantum Threshold\n                        <\/li>\n<li>\n                                        REACH\n                        <\/li>\n<li>\n                                        Fellowship\n                        <\/li>\n<li>\n                                        Metal Slug: Awakening\n                        <\/li>\n<li>\n                                        The Obsessive Shadow\n                        <\/li>\n<li>\n                                        Drop Dead: The Cabin\n                        <\/li>\n<li>\n                                        Zero&#8230;<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.howtogeek.com\/valves-proton-compatibility-layer-brings-19-more-games-to-linux\/\">Source<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Valve&#8217;s Proton compatibility layer brings 19 more games to Linux https:\/\/www.howtogeek.com\/valves-proton-compatibility-layer-brings-19-more-games-to-linux\/ Publish Date: 2026-01-27 11:35:00&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":207065,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"fifu_image_url":"https:\/\/static0.howtogeekimages.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/steam-logo-on-blue-and-black-background.jpg?w=1600&h=900&fit=crop","fifu_image_alt":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[48],"tags":[71],"class_list":["post-207064","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-linux","tag-linux"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/207064"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=207064"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/207064\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":207066,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/207064\/revisions\/207066"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/207065"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=207064"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=207064"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=207064"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
