I’d love to see that, because my understanding is that the anticheat software that fortnite and others use requires pretty deep access to your system that linux either can’t or won’t give them

Yes they use kernel level anticheat and they are correct it would be easier to cheat on Linux.

EAC does support Linux and can be enabled. It just isn’t as secure.
