Nvidea 576,31 drivers on Linux?
Hi, so the game wants me to update to said drivers, but when I check both the official website the game links me to and the drivermanager (using Linux Mint), the latest are just drivers 570... so I assume the drivers don't exist on Linux, to be fair: the game still runs and looks decent on medium settings on 1920x1080 (I don't have the most modern hardware and I'm running the game on a 2070 Super), but I notice that the symbols on the automap are very pixelated and look weird, which makes me wonder if this is an issue because said drivers just don't exist for me...

No worries everything is fine. Driver update are sparse on linux mint (I use it too). Sometime some game check the driver version "as if it was running on windows", thats it.
There's no driver update for Linux yet, 570.144 is the most recent (except for a beta they're still obviously testing).

If you're 'new to Linux', maybe wait until Nvidia pops a new driver & it ends up in your distro's repo, which might take days/a week/whatever. If Nvidia pops a driver & you don't want to wait & have a go at manually installing: https://www.nvidia.com/en-us/drivers/unix/

But yeah, that message can be ignored.

Lots of games aren't, which is why Valve developed Proton (based on Wine).
Look, if you do not know, don't pretend to and give advice.
