Now Valve has rolled out an update to Proton/Steam Play that makes it possible to run even more games — including games that aren’t event distributed via Valve’s Steam client.

Valve announced this week that they are releasing a Beta version of Steam Play Proton, that uses a modified version of Wine to allow games with no Linux compatibility be installed and played.

Steam Play is an incredibly impressive compatibility layer, and it makes running Windows games in Linux easier than ever.

If you want to try out something new on your computer, a live system is just the thing: Use one to start a Linux computer or a console game or turn your PC into a Chromebook.

In six days, nearly 1000 Windows-exclusive Steam titles became perfectly playable on Linux. What happens in the next six months?
