DXVK is an open-source translation layer which converts Direct3D 8/9/10/11 calls to Vulkan. It is used by Proton/Steam for Linux, by Intel Windows drivers, VirtualBox 7.0, and it can be used to run Direct3D-based games under Windows using Vulkan. DXVK has been confirmed to support over 80% of Direct3D Windows games "near flawlessly".
