GE-Proton 9-14 has been released bringing in more game fixes for Linux desktop and Steam Deck, for those who need the extras.
As your reminder: it's a community-build of Proton, nothing to do with the official Proton from Valve. You'll find GE adds specific fixes that Valve often can't (due to legal reasons) but GE comes with less testing and support. Usually you only want to use it for specific games until they work properly in Valve's Proton, or for using Proton outside of Steam like in Heroic and Lutris. See more about Proton in my guide.
This release pulls in a change for God of War Ragnarök, specifically for Desktop Linux users, so you'll no longer need the launch option to pretend you're running a Steam Deck. Plus a few other game-specific fixes, and the usual updates from all the upstream projects like DXVK, VKD3D-Proton, Wine and others.
