Running battle net (and any Blizz game) depends on a layer of software that translates the intended OS into the underlying Linux OS. That layer exists, and is fairly robust, for Windows. It’s called Wine, and it has several variants intended for gaming use.
Does Battlenet work on Linux?
Introduction. Blizzard’s games are wildly popular, and most of them work very well in Wine on Linux. Sure, they’re not officially supported, but that doesn’t mean that it’s hard to get them running on Ubuntu. Before you get started, make sure that you have the latest graphics drivers for your system installed.
How do I install battle net on Linux?
Open the Linux terminal and execute the below command for installing all packages:
- $ sudo apt install wine64 winbind winetricks.
- $ winetricks.
- $ winecfg.
- $ wine64 ~/Downloads/Battle.net-Setup.exe.
