Siege X Couldn't Even Launch on Fresh Install
The procedure entry point CreateFileMapping2 could not be located in the dynamic link library api-ms-win-core-memory-|1-1-7.dll
Granted, they haven't announced any changes to the anti cheat support for Linux so even if it did launch it wouldn't be playable.
Completely borked

The game fails to launch. It wouldn't have worked anyway, because of AntiCheat.
Tried to run the game with different launch options, proton versions, protontricks etc.
Not playable on Linux.

The intense tinkering I performed still is not sufficient to play the game online, which is the central gameplay experience of Siege.

It is completely impossible to play an online game. The error messages and timings very slightly, but you will not play.
Proton-GE-Siegefix can be found on GitHub under the repo Dahipppo1555/proton-ge-custom

Siege requires a dll that seemingly only wine 10.6 supports. However, I can't seem to install ubisoft connect via winetricks.
Attempted to install ubisoft connect within the wineprefix via winetricks.

does not launch
gamemoderun %command%
used multiple launch options as well as using battleye runtime. game does not launch. did not try lutris or any other tricks
Cant play multiplayer Y10S1.2

Online Matchmaking doesn't work, Battlenet kicked me out of the match.
Only game mode is Supported are Custom games.

Briefly had major artifacts on first start, but disappeared after that
Despite using Steam, I needed to link to the battleye runtime from lutris (you will need to install lutris to use that). Proton TKG can be easily obtained through a third-party app called ProtonUp.

the game installed, and ran fine but I can't play multiplayer because they are unwilling to allow their crappy anti-cheat on linux, fuck em
Can't join multiplayer game, battle eye removes me from match instantly.
fuck ubisoft :)

battle eye unsupported for online
Uplay is not installed and does not allow the game to run

Game launches fine but unfortunately Ubisoft doesn't allow Linux players to play, for no real reason.
Doesn't work because anti cheat. Could work but that's down to Ubisoft.
Online is borked. You can only play local modes, like map training for example.
Tried Ge-Proton and Proton Experimental, the game just closes.

Still No Linux Support (Y10S1)
Install Ubisoft Connect
I saw that Valve marked this game Playable on Steam Deck and ProtonDB marked this Bronze, but these are both lies. You cannot play online. Installing Proton BattleEye Runtime manually does not resolve the issue.
Ubisoft Montreal have stated in the past that they will not support Steam Deck or Linux. Valve marking this as Playable is outright bait.

RAINBOW SIX SIEGE X - THE NEXT 10 YEARS OF SIEGE. NO LINUX SUPPORT
Ubicuck is a shit company.

Got an error in online mode
I got an error when in operator selection kicking me back to main menu

Kicked out of multiplayer on operator selection

Singleplayer works sure, but this is mainly a multiplayer game. Since multiplayer does not work, the game is unplayable.

everything graphics at low settings 60fps capped
uplay worked and i was able to play online if you do have uplay issues look up uplay protonticks https://youtu.be/FdfANCwUUJU?si=tC5eMg006sHM74fx

Year 10. Season 1, Prep Phase. Kick from match with error 2-0x00019008.
Even though Ubisoft Connect is installed, since the new season it started kicking with a Battle Eye error about inactivity. I love Ubisoft.
Year 10. Season 1, Prep Phase. Still Kicked From Match

With ProtonUp-Qt and Steam Tinker Launch, the game can be launched and it will work fine.
Installed ProtonUp-Qt. In it I installed SteamTinkerLaunch 12.12 (the latest version at the moment). Restarted Steam and in the game properties, in compatibility I specified Steam Tinker Launch.
When launching the game clicked MAIN MENU and “One time run”, in it selected the installer Ubisoft Connect and installed it in the standard path. I didn't run Ubisoft Connect separately from the game as it is automatically included in the account when the game starts. I don't know if this affects it, but I also have the Proton BattleEye Runtime installed, but I didn't see any BattleEye installations when I launched the game. Some antichit was installed in the game itself and restarted it.

Y9S4.2 - Does Not Launch Past the Uplay Launcher Popup
Tried Proton; GE22, Experimental, Hotfix and 9.0-4 none worked, after the third try the Uplay launcher would not even appear.

Kernel level anticheat as usual.
Battleye has support for proton but Ubisoft prefers not to allow linux users.

Well just want to keep the site up to date
its not working xD

Can't Play Online
Local Play works vs AI but online dosen't work because of BattleEye

PROTON_BATTLEYE_RUNTIME="/home/youstolemyjuice/.local/share/Steam/steamapps/common/Proton BattlEye Runtime" gamemoderun DXVK_ASYNC=1 %command%
Can play versus AI and other things that are local but you cannot play anything online at all.

Requires you to choose between online/local saves. Online won't work and you have to choose locally, but they're the same.
EXPLANATION FOR WHY ONLINE WONT WORK (It is for the best and intentional) BattlEye works with any game on a kernel-level. If it were able to be used on Linux, this would be detremental to the Linux community and allow for several people with malicious intent to do harm to our computers, as the Linux kernel is open-source. It is for the best that it isn't used, it just sucks that BattlEye isn't server-side. 😕
Switch to Proton-GE and run with DirectX 11 (shown as DX11 on Steam), Vulkan won't load the game, but this could be due to background Vulkan shaders loading on Steam's part which takes a lifetime.
If you enjoy multiplayer and don't enjoy singleplayer, don't purchase this game otherwise you will be wasting your money.

The game currently does not launch
Neither through Steam or through the Ubisoft Connect launcher which is automatically launched with the game, this is a new issue for Y9S4

Screen black when tabbing into, game freezes when tabbing out.
Kicked from online games ~10 seconds in even when using proton battleye runtime

The anti-cheat kicks you from the game immediately due to them not supporting Linux.
Ubisoft please fix!

Works but no multiplayer
Multiplayer doesnt work (silly ubisoft and their anti cheat)
Doesn't launch as it needs Uplay which I couldn't get to work using Wine or Lutris

Removed from match [2-0x00019008]
around 5-10 seconds after connecting to a match, new patch, nothing

online doesn't work
everything works besides online

patch Y9S2.2 still does not work kicked instantly upon seeing the chosen map
error code: 2-0x00019008 [you have been kicked out of the game

Multiplayer Borked
Matchmaking blocked by Anti-Cheat

'REMOVED FROM MATCH' error code: [2-0x00019008] You have been kicked out of the game.
this is patch Y9S2.1, you can now start a match and get into one, start playing but you still get kicked after around 30 seconds. im really not sure what is going on here but it seems to just be randomly changing without a lot of input from ubisoft, but you never know

new season Y9S2 "New Blood" still does not work - "Removed From Match, error code: [2-0x00019008] You have been kicked out of the game.
this time i am kicked quicker than before, being kicked instantly upon joining an online multiplay match instead of 10 seconds in, this may mean that they are doubling down on proton not being supported
