This is the tech that forms part of Steam Play Proton! Once a year or so, a new stable release is made but the development versions are usually fine to use.

- Character tables updated to Unicode 15.0.0.
- Wow64 support in the macOS driver.
- Async reader fixes in GStreamer support.
- Various bug fixes.
