I've already covered what I think are the must-have Steam Deck deals in the Steam Spring Sale 2025, but what if you're someone who specifically shops for games that have a Native Linux version available? Here's some recommendations for you.

    For anyone unfamiliar with Linux gaming, at this point, whether or not a game has a native Linux runtime is kind of irrelevant.

    In fact, it has been my experience, that Windows versions of many games run better with Proton than their Linux counterparts. Probably because more work goes into the Windows versions to optimize.

    Either way, still good to know who’s actually trying out there.

      Proton has been a blessing and a curse. What’s the point of making a native Linux version when you can more easily make it work well with Proton (or don’t bother at all and it might still work with Proton).

    Of the games on this list that I have, they are, indeed great

    Now I’m going to look away and pretend to forget, because I do not need to buy more games for my unplayed backlog, today.
