Probably the biggest change is it’s now using the UMU project as a default. This project is meant to make sure that games will run without the user having to individually troubleshoot or manually install components.

Right now, there are many windows games that run perfectly if launched from steam, but if you try running the same game from epic/gog it won’t work without further work. The UMU project is building a game database of what specific games need to work, and it will automatically resolve those issues. This will only get better over time as more games get added to their database.

There are a lot of other changes as well, I recommend checking out the article for some other highlights or checking out the full patch notes here

    This is like 100x better than Lutris. I’ve been using it for a very long time. It’s just fantastic once you get the hang of it.
