Nope. Sometimes they can't even get it working on all CPUs.
I've heard it's possible to play them on a Windows virtual machine on Linux but I have no clue how bad the performance hit would be stacking hypervisors like that.
I was able to find it, but I wonder if it works

Oh brother, the post inside is talking about Single-GPU passthrough.
It's doable and I've done it before but fair warning: it can be a serious pain in the ass, especially if you have a GPU that doesn't reset right and hangs every other attempt lmaooo 🥲
Anecdotal, but I have an Nvidia card doing GPU passthrough to a Windows VM, on proxmox. I have had no issues once I got it set up.
I even found some patches to trick some anti cheat to not know I'm on a hypervisor.
Doesn't work for all anti cheat, for instance I don't try to play AAA multiplayer games, but I can play helldiver's and single player games no problem.
Just a guess, but with all the AI bullshit, GPU passthrough to vms should just get better.
