Got this from a post on the alien site. From previous discussion on Lemmy it sounded like Linux users had good things to say about this game but were discouraged about the upcoming FaceIt implementation such that they wouldn’t be able to join anticheat enabled matches. Those users and Linux gamers on the fence would probably appreciate hearing this news.
With this announcement on the dev team’s community Discord, it appears Linux users will NOT lose access to matches with anticheat.

Just announced on [Stage Channel] there will be a new version of FaceIT that supports Linux!!! (Popular version of Linux and SteamDeck will be supported) And different than the CSGO version. BBR will be the first game to be using that version (A more casual version)

Well this is great news. My coworkers have been no-lifing this game and I’ve been refusing to buy, seeing as I’d be “locked out” when the new anti-cheat hit.

I’m still not buying this game until this is setup and proven working.
Choosing a company for their anti cheat that is aggressively anti Linux as they’ve been in the past and the level of access they require gives me good reason to not trust them.
Hey that’s a fair assessment, I think it’s fine to wait and see what this implementation will ultimately look like. We got a confirmation but details are still scant.
