Short version: Ran perfectly normally - but only after changing the proton version to 4.11-13.
Long version: I tried the current proton version, the experimental version, and glorious egroll and the game immediately gave me an error message and crashed for all three. When I tried the launch option command some other people here recommended, I got a black screen for a while before an eventual silent crash. While keeping that launch option change, I went through all the proton versions and still could not run the game. I came back here for more potential fixes to try. After I changed to proton 4.11-13 and cleared the launch options box, it ran normally!
Unreal Engine / Exit 8 Crashes when trying to start
Game does not currently work on Intel iGPUs.
The game worked perfect, I haven't noticed any differences in graphic or performence in comparison to many videos. With my build, I was able to run it on highest settings without a problem, and I didn't notice any graphic bugs.
Does not work currently on Intel Xe graphics
Error pop-up. The title states: "The UE-Exit8 Game has crashed and will close." The error text in the window reads "Fatal error!".
PROTON_USE_WINED3D=1 %command%
I don't know all the tinkering that people normally do, but I tried what I read by other commenters for this game.
Worked out of the box
Had no issues with the game, got to the exit twice and found all anomalies in it.
Reduced visual quality to medium, like others have already mentioned.
After 10 to 20 seconds of pressing the play button I get an error dialog with the following message:
Fatal error!

Needs 15W TDP and Medium quality settings for consistent FPS
The game runs as intended without any issues. Proton Experimental
Terrible framerate and input lag no matter what settings
Flawless
Install, play. No special steps needed.
Using wayland it has a hard time choosing the correct resolution for the monitor.(defaulting to the max of my second monitor) Causing some performance issues.
The resolution issue may be a game issue or a wayland issue, but the lack of being able to choose a montior may cause issues.
1 time in an hour of playtime.
May be an issue on my end due to a large amount of virtual machines running. This game does seem much more graphically intensive then CPU though, so maybe not
With no tinkering, game cannot start at all unless your default proton is 4.11.
Although you need to turn the graphics settings to medium, it still looks great and consistently runs at 60fps.
Change to mouse operation.
If you like, you can use the right trackpad for mouse operation.
Had to go to Properties>Compatibility>Force Proton Experimental to get it to install. But it ran perfectly after that.
Exits immediately or gets stuck on black screen before menu
I'm unable to get into the game on Linux. The game exits immediately with Proton Experimental. With flatpak'd Steam and GE-Proton 8.16 I can get it to start but then am immediately stuck on a black screen. The process seems busy but nothing happens after that.
