Absolutely, you can run GTA 5 on Linux, but not directly though. You'll need to use Wine or a compatibility layer like Proton on Steam. Proton has been a game-changer, making tons of Windows-only games playable on Linux. Just make sure your Linux machine meets the game's system requirements!

Nope, GTA 5 doesn't natively support Linux. But that doesn't mean you're out of luck. Use Steam Play with Proton. It works pretty smoothly for a lot of users.

I've been playing GTA 5 on my Linux setup for months! Proton through Steam was my way to go. Just a heads up, you might need to tweak some settings for optimal performance, but it's totally doable and worth it.

GTA 5 on Linux? Just dual-boot Windows, trust me. It's less hassle.

You sure can! Steam's Proton or Wine are your best bets. I've used Proton, and after some initial setup, I was stealing cars and causing chaos in no time!
