Скачать или смотреть How to Play Call of Duty Black Ops 1 & 2 on Linux in 2025

In this Youtube video, I showcase how Linux users can play Call of Duty Black Ops 1 & 2 on Steam when your Operating System is some flavour of Linux (which in my case was Linux Mint 22.2). The steps should apply to all linux distros nonetheless, because the steps are similar.
