Forza Horizon 3 is not natively supported on Linux.
The VKD3D Angle
The primary obstacle preventing FH3 from running on Linux is its architecture. Unlike its successors, Forza Horizon 4 and 5, which were eventually released on Steam using standard Win32 APIs,
- CPU with VT-d / AMD-Vi (most modern CPUs).
- Two GPUs: One for Linux (e.g., integrated Intel graphics) and one for Windows (e.g., NVIDIA GTX 1080 or better).
The Solution
