When it comes to gaming on Linux, many many many people’s understanding stil remains in the Jurassic era. For the past few years, I’ve been using Linux as my main operating system for both work and gaming. From my personal experience, the gaming experience on Linux is far superior to that of macOS and Windows. I know I know…whenever I mention this, there are always some old-school individuals who come out to say that Linux’s driver configuration is complex, its game support is not rich enough, and its compatibility issues are significant, among other problems. In this article, I will directly address these issues and let everyone understand how much the gaming experience on Linux has developed by 2025.

    There are distros for that. Ubuntu and derivatives have a GUI hardware detection tool that finds the right driver for you. Some distros come with Nvidia drivers out of the box. Most have a GUI tool for adding extra package repos for things like Nvidia drivers.

    But it’s important to note that this isn’t a Linux problem, it’s an Nvidia problem. AMD drivers are bundled with the kernel because they’re FOSS, and Nvidia could totally do the same thing.
