Also happening to me on steam platform(steam deck) as of today's patch; many linux users and windows users are also reporting the same issue on steam community forums as well as the spacemarine subreddit. Unable to play the game at all. Attempted verifying game files, uninstalling and reinstalling as well as using different versions of proton with no change. Just upvoting and replying for more visibility.
