FreeBSD 14+ Achieves Steam Play Gaming with linuxulator-steam-utils
At FOSDEM today in Brussels, Thibault Payet presented on the state of gaming on FreeBSD. A notable highlight was the "linuxulator-steam-utils" project, which enables Proton.">Steam Play gaming for users on FreeBSD 14 and newer. This initiative builds upon FreeBSD's existing Linuxulator support, a compatibility layer designed to run Linux binaries. By utilizing these tools, FreeBSD can now run the Steam Linux client and leverage Steam Play, including Proton, to execute Windows-native games through its translation layers, significantly expanding gaming options for the platform.
