Der Faugus Launcher, ein grafischer Starter für Windows-Spiele unter Linux mit Wine/Proton-Unterstützung, wurde in der Version 2.0.0 veröffentlicht.
Größter Punkt dieses Releases ist die komplette Portierung auf GTK4, was für bessere Wayland- und Flatpak-Kompatibilität sowie eine überarbeitete UI sorgt. Dazu kommt eine neue SteamGridDB-Integration, die automatisch Icons, Cover und Banner für Spiele lädt.
