Does Conan Exiles Enhanced run on Linux?
Verdict: Partly
Partly. Conan Exiles Enhanced runs on Linux through Steam's Proton tool and players on ProtonDB rate it Gold, the second-highest rating, but its online play is guarded by BattlEye, which does not work on Linux. Expect single-player only.
Conan Exiles Enhanced is an action, adventure, RPG, simulation and strategy game from Funcom, first released on 8 May 2018.
You can play it alone or co-operatively online. Steam lists it as fully playable with a controller.

What you can do
No version of Linux and no setting can fix this, because the block is on the game's side. Trying to get around anti-cheat can also put your account at risk. If this is a game you play often, keep Windows on that PC, or install Linux beside Windows and restart into Windows to play.
