The store page hasn't updated yet, but you can see the Linux Steam depots on steamdb.

This is huge. I was beginning to lose hope we'd ever see a big budget high-profile non-indie get a Linux port ever again.

Edit: Maybe not that huge...

Now that there is a Steam Deck Native build, is Baldur’s Gate 3 supported on Linux?

Larian does not provide support for the Linux platform. The Steam Deck Native build is only supported on Steam Deck.

I think this is perfectly fine. I dont think we should really be expecting them to provide support for the entirety of the linux platform when there is so much variation between installs. If its working on steam deck, it'll work on linux generally.
