BattlEye

Linux: Partial

by BattlEye Innovations (independent)

Long-running anti-cheat used by large shooters and survival games.

Security model: Client-side scanning with a kernel component, plus server-side enforcement.

Linux / Proton / Steam Deck policy

BattlEye announced Proton support in 2021, but it is opt-in per developer. Several large publishers have not enabled it, so results vary widely from game to game.

Execution level

Kernel on Windows, user-space on Linux

Kernel-mode driver on Windows; user-space runtime on Linux/Proton

System requirements

  • No universal Secure Boot / TPM requirement
  • Individual games may add their own requirements

Proton / Wine module

Toggleable Proton runtime

Runtime fetched by Proton when the developer enables Linux support for the title.
