    Lutris desktop client

    Just a few quick tips: - Steam is the best place to game on Linux. Proton does wonders. To enable it for all titles, go into settings -> Steam Play -> Enable Steam Play for all titles - For games not on Steam, use either Lutris or Bottles. - I don't know about the exact state of VR on Linux, but I think some (most?) games don't work, even with WINE/Proton. In this case, as a last resort, you can run a VM. You'll have to setup GPU-passthrough to get acceptable performances. I think virt-manager is well suited for that, but it's not exactly the most user-friendly software. You'll have to ask for help on this point, I suppose.
