Notes from Are We Anti-Cheat Yet

How to play it

  1. Install Steam from your Linux app store and sign in. Your library is already there.
  2. In Steam's settings, under Compatibility, switch on "Enable Steam Play for all other titles". That turns on Proton for every Windows game. You only do this once.
  3. Install Halo Infinite and press Play.
