I'll tell you how to reproduce the problem.

  1. Choose "Proton Experimental" in the game compatibility tab.
  2. Remove the game bottle
    rm -rf "$HOME/.steam/steam/steamapps/compatdata/1567020"
  3. Remove Proton Experimental
    rm -rf "$HOME/.steam/steam/steamapps/common/Proton - Experimental"
  4. Verify integrity of game files in the game local files tab.
  5. Try launch the game.

I expected that all removed files on step 3 would be reinstalled. But something gone wrong.

Workaround - verify integrity of stable proton 7.0.4 and relaunch game with stable proton.

"Proton Hotfix" is also affected by this issue.
