A new version of FaceIT Anti-Cheat will officially bring Linux and Steam Deck support to the service with BattleBit Remastered being the first to get it.
There has been some controversy in the BattleBit community over the fact that they will implement an anti-cheat that may stop Linux users from playing the game.
Luckily, the developers have confirmed that they will use a new version of the FaceIT anticheat that will still allow Linux/Steam Deck users to keep playing. They will be the first game to implement this feature.

Not a fan of linux games having specialized support?
Not a fan of kernel level anti cheat
As long as its in user space, sb fine. Does this need admin privileges to run?
Think this is the most important question on this issue I don’t think it will be just user space.
I’m on windows. It is kernel level on windows. I guess I could run it in a Linux vm though considering how light weight the game is
That’s fair, I sometimes enjoy valorant but despise their anti-cheat.
Yeah I’m kinda bummed because this is the most fun I’ve had in matchmaking since Halo 3
