I don't know of any report, but just like the first one it's still using Unity, so I wouldn't worry from a compatibility perspective.
That said, the performance is apparently pretty bad, so if you care about that the experience will probably be awful on any OS.

Runs like hot garbage on medium 4K on a 6900XT. 25fps with an empty city. On launch, it defaulted to ultimate settings, and had the menus chugging at 3fps.
Feels like they accidentally shipped a debug/non-optimized build to customers.
They flatout said the performance is not where they wanted it to be. This state was to be expected. Nonetheless glad it's on gamepads and hope that I'll be able to run it some day.
I meant what I said. 4fps on menus is officially “bug” category, not “urrrrr it’s not where we want it to be”.
I just installed it and it seems to work out-of-the-box for me on Ubuntu 23.10 with a AMD 7900 XTX and AMD 5800X. I'm getting around 55 fps at 3440x1440 with almost everything high beside having disabled V-Sync, DoF and Motion blur. AA set to TAA 2x.
Be the first to let everyone know. I don't expect it to not run, but given everything else at the moment, I don't expect it to run well yet
That's excellent to hear. We have a very similar config. The only difference is NY slightly older gpu
Proton is good enough that I'm extremely confident that games will "just work" even if it's a fresh release. If it for some reason doesn't, refunding is free and easy. Though it sounds like it's an unoptimized mess regardless lol.
PSA you can download a savegame with a city pop of 100k to check how well the game will run in later stages. By doing this you can check it and refund it if necessary.
Gameranx's "Before you Buy" said it was "extremely undercooked and not optimized", struggling to get to 30fps on medium settings on a good rig - so I don't imagine it'll run any better on Proton for now. I'll wait a few patches before getting it.
It 'opens' on Steam Deck and Mac but it runs poorly even before really starting your city (City Planner Plays tried it to benchmark), so it appears that it is at least compatible with Linux via Proton.
Runs fine on my computer. Getting a consistent 40-60 fps without lag or stuttering in a 10K city.

- DRIVER: 4.6 Mesa 23.1.9
- PROTON: 8.0-4
Sounded like you'll be lucky to get it running even on a normal Windows rig let alone via proton lol. Paradox doing Paradox things
I really hope it runs on Proton well at some point in the near future, if not on release. I've been eyeing a reason to upgrade my gaming rig and CSII feels like a good enough reason for me to go for it (once they iron out some of the performance stuff)
