I confirm:

- that I haven't found an existing compatibility report for this game.
Symptoms
When open the game it opens up like it did on windows but after a second the game turns into a black screen except the mouse but when a tab out of the game the black screen disappears. The hole time i can interact with the game and hear the sound from the game.

Research direction
Start by reviewing steam-960090.log and steam-387990.log, then consult the linked system information report for the reported NVIDIA driver, kernel, and Proton versions. Compare the behavior of both games under Proton 7.0-3 and 6.3-8. Done means each game renders normally while focused instead of showing a black screen with only the mouse visible.
