It isn’t native, but it works very well. It uses Vulkan.

Silly question of the day, if a games uses vulkan it doesn’t need to compile the shaders like you would for a direct x game?

unfortunately, my system seems to need to compile the shaders before I start the game if it’s the first time I’ve started the game that steam session.
