    Headline is misleading since it gives impression Sony is intentionally going out of their way to prevent the game from working through Proton, but this is more the case of multiplayer component not working.

      So you are saying that I can run the game but it will show me this error if I try to start multiplayer?

      AFAIK the multiplayer was working for Playstation titles, so much that some of them got the verified check and that’s supposed to only be given if everything works. So yes, they’re purposefully breaking it by adding a dependency on (probably) kernel level anti-cheat, since any other Windows API could be converted by wine (but kernel level apis are purposefully checking if it’s being run on wine to throw an error)
