Tinker Steps:Custom Proton: GE-Proton8-25
This game would initially not install in the default Proton or GE: the EA App would hang on installation. I was able to work around that by, on first launch, falling back to Proton 6.3-8, which allowed the install to complete. I was able to then switch back to GE-Proton8-25 to actually run the game. I've successfully used this workaround with several EA games I purchased during the Autumn sale.

I use a custom CLI command to bypass the launcher, and use GE Proton simply because it's available, but neither are necessary to launch the game. I force the use of a specific compatibility tool only because I find the Windows version under Proton is a better experience than the actual native port.
