Setup & launch options

%command%
Easy Anti-Cheat and BattlEye only work under Proton when the developer has enabled it for this game, and no launch option changes that. Use the latest Proton (or Proton Experimental) and leave launch options empty unless a note below says otherwise.

General guidance only. Per-game launch options aren't part of the upstream dataset, so follow the community notes for game-specific steps.
