Got greeted with this message today. I’ve been playing Apex on linux for more than a year. Not sure if this could be related? Is this just me?

I’ve contested the ban and I’m currently waiting for a response from ea support.

    In the past I don’t think it was possible to even play on Linux because of the anti-cheat, but I think Proton worked out a way to emulate it. Maybe something to do with that if it’s not technically “official” support? It’s extra stupid if the emulated anti-cheat is working fine.

      No. EAC and Battleye developed ways to explicitly support proton, which has to be explicitly enabked by the developer for the game to run.

      EAC works of linux just fine, and the fact that Apex runs means Respawn deliberately allows it.
