Additional Comments

As mentioned in the comments, avoid using the PlayOnLinux version of Wine as it fails to launch the game. I'd recommend using vanilla Wine (x86_64) only.

As of Wine 3.5, the Vulkan LunarG SDK is not required to run the game.

HowTo / Notes

Issues with radv

As of February 2018, radv has issues with the game and needs patches. See https://bugs.freedesktop.org/s... for more info.

Wine with Vulkan support is required

Wine gained Vulkan support with 3.4 release. Older wine-staging had Vulkan support, but it was not sufficient (missing extensions).

As of Wine 3.4, enabling Vulkan support requires some manual setup that is described in steps 2 to 4 on the original wine-vulkan README page.

Audio stutter

If you are experiencing audio choppiness/stutter, try installing 64bit version of XAudio2_7 via winetricks:

WINEARCH=win64 winetricks xact
