This isn’t news for us already on Linux so much as it is yet another signal to Windows users that gaming on Linux is viable and worth investigating.
GOG and CDPR are closely related, so if nothing else, this means a high likelihood of launch day support for The Witcher 4 on Linux (or at least Proton), and THAT is a big deal.
Of course, The Witcher 4 will work on Linux. Only kernel-level anti cheat and some obscure DRM are still blockers.
If you can buy it on GOG, it’s almost guaranteed to work with GE Proton on Linux.
