EAC does work on Linux, developers just have to flip a toggle switch to support Linux. Some devs just don't want to do that.

Halo MCC, Apex Legends, Back 4 blood, and Smite are all games that use EAC and work on Linux.

And basically no kernel anticheat will work on Linux. So Helldivers 2 isn't kernel anticheat, just user-space.

I did forget apex legends works, boggles the mind that EA's most popular multiplayer game just werks on linux. But most EAC using games don't sadly.

Helldivers 2's anti-cheat (nProtect GameGuard) is kernel-level on Windows, but has a userspace fallback for linux
