Hello @YoinkerBoinker, this is the current expected behavior for most Linux native titles.

In the interest of long term maintainability for all older Linux native titles, Steam will use the Steam Linux Runtime 1.0 container environment by default. Steam is accurately reporting that the runtime environment is being used with the game.
