My steam sysinfo can be found here.
Tried proton experimental latest and GE-37.
I confirm:
- that I haven't found an existing compatibility report for this game.
- that I have checked whether there are updates for my system available.
Symptoms

It seems strange that it gets this error since this is a common dependency. I was able to solve the problem by using a prefix with vcredist2019 installed via bottles. Game seems to run fine with DX12. Perhaps it requires a later version of vcredist than proton will provision? (I have no idea how protons provisioning works.)
Reproduction
Just install and run as normal.

Research direction
Start by reproducing the report with Proton Experimental and GE-37 on the listed Manjaro, NVIDIA, and DX12 setup. Review the linked Steam sysinfo and screenshot, then determine whether installing vcredist2019 is required; no source file, test, or other implementation entry point is identified, so done is not defined beyond confirming the compatibility behavior.
