    Cyberpunk 2077, probably. The game maxed out will destroy your graphics card but the graphics are undoubtedly gorgeous.

    Horizon Forbidden West also has really good graphics.

      I second Horizon. There are moments where I’m convinced the graphics are pre-rendered when cranked to the max.

      I second Cyberpunk, ray tracing enabled or not. That game truly captures a realistic dystopian world in the best way possible.

      I just started playing ghost of tsushima on my steam deck and it’s fucking gorgeous even on low settings, so I assume that would be pretty beautiful maxed out too.

    Alan Wake 2 is probably the best looking game running on any system, it works on Linux via Proton

    You can look for specific games on protondb.com to get a good idea of how they run.

    I don’t chase high-end PC gaming anywhere near enough to name a single game that is known for realism.

    The facial animation in Hellblade: Senua’s Sacrifice is still the best I’ve ever seen, and that game came out in 2017.

    Incredible looking game. I hope the sequel lives up to the original.

    I’ll answer your question with another question: What is the most realistic-looking game?

    I’m not on linux, but I heard star citizen works and it’s running a free to play event right now until the 26th of May.

    If you don’t like Easy Anti Cheat I would avoid it.

      I don’t have a problem with anti cheats. I just hate the ones blocking Linux on purpose.

    The most realistic one that I’ve personally run is The Witcher 3, but I’m sure there are more realistic ones out there.
