Hello, I’m interested into some good casula shooter’s that work on linux. My only requirement is that they shouldn’t EVER have to use an external launcher like ea ( have bf3 on steam and the ea launcher just doesn’t wanna work ).
I played games like splitgate, halo infinite and battlebit remastered

Good ol counter strike
Dusk, definitively try that
Red Eclipse, although I’m not sure how large the player base is
If Sunset Overdrive by Insomniac is too casual and platformy, there are oldschool Quake games just remastered that can make anyone’s blood boil with a pretty okay difficulty scaling.
Iron Maiden
Xonotic, an open-source arena shooter
I remember playing that when it was Nexuiz (the first time). I may have to crank it up again now that I’ve been reminded of it.
I can recommend Selaco. It’s built on GZDoom and one of the best shooters I’ve played in the last years.
Ion fury and Hedon are solid too, build engine and gzdoom respectively. Selaco though, sometimes it’s almost hard to believe it’s running on the doom engine.
Agreed, the technical side is super impressive. The 2D character sprites are basically the only constant reminder how old this engine really is.
Deep Rock Galactic. Rock and stone, miner!

Anger Foot natively supports Linux, and I’d consider the gameplay loop to be pretty casual.
To sum it up, you kick down doors and shoot your way through rooms while having hardcore EDM blasted at you. It has a Hotline Miami vibe to it, but is FPS.
More like this type of game:
Mullet Mad Jack
Post Void
Team Fortress 2
Any Boomer Shooters like Dusk, ULTRAKILL, Zortch, Cultic, ROBOQUEST, etc.
Try Ravenfield. It doesn’t get anymore casual than that. The most fun you can have with a battlefield like game without any of the BS.
Would run and gun games count? If so, I strongly recommend the Neo Geo Metal Slug games. They’re all sold emulated on PC (GOG for the no launcher requirement).
And on a more usual sense of “shooter games”, Saints Row The Third (GOG and Humble Bundle) and UNLOVED (original version is a mod of Doom II afaik). And just a note, Saints Rows The Third, from some tests I did a while back, seems to have a memory leak issue in character customization screens when running under default Wine.
Ravenfield for cartoony/low poly acradey fun
Operation Harsh Doorstop for something more like Project Reality
Serious Sam
Ofcourse the gane made in my country got recommended.
I finished it already but might be the time to replay it.
