The next Proton GE update has been released, and with it comes a chunk of new protonfixes to get some games running well on the Steam Deck. Other than updates to the components, we now have some protonfixes for Alan Wake, Batman Arkham Asylum, and Rainbow Six Siege. The multiplayer still doesn't work due to the anti-cheat, but it can launch again, which it wasn't able to before:
