Bottles is a graphical tool that makes it easy to run Windows software and games on Linux, via Wine. Learn about the Bottles Wine Prefix Manager release here.
For handling Wine prefixes, the tool uses environments, which are combinations of ready-to-use settings, libraries, and dependencies. Wine / Proton, DXVK, and the required dependencies are downloaded using a built-in download manager.
Bottles also features the ability to add environment variables, override DLLs, as well as an experimental installers database, among many other features.
