Distro: Linux Mint 19 Cinnamon 64-bit
Kernel version: 4.15.0-39
Graphics card: AMD RX 480 8GB
Graphics driver & version: Open source, with Mesa 18.2.4 from Padoka's stable Mesa PPA
Wine version(s) tested: Proton 3.16-4

Install notes: Requires .NET 4.0 and PhysX (and DXVK for DX11)
How well does it run: Perfect (only DX11 tested - DX9 mode looks like it works ok but I didn't test it beyond loading it up briefly)
Details: I've fully played through the game and its DLC with no sign of any issues. Proton's bundled version of DXVK was used & PhysX was not enabled.

Run the game in a virtual desktop, as otherwise it will start minimised. Also MouseWarpOverride may need to be set to "force".

Wine wrapper
I have put together a Linux Wine wrapper for this game. For more information, see the release thread in the game's forum: https://www.gog.com/forum/the_bureau_xcom_declassified/the_bureau_for_linux

Graphics driver & version: Open source, with Mesa 18.2.4 from Padoka's stable Mesa PPA
Wine version(s) tested: Proton 3.16-4

Install notes: Requires xact
How well does it run: Almost perfect
Details: I've not done a complete playthrough, but I've played played for a while without any major issues.

The launcher requires .NET and I was unable get it to work properly, so you must start the game directly from XCOMGame.exe or XComEW.exe for the base game & Enemy Within respectively. Also you must use the argument "-FROMLAUNCHER" when starting them - if you don't do this they'll try to start the launcher.

I encountered some rendering issues with the base game on my system - a bright line is displayed in the lower right corner, and if "Fog of War" is set to low then there are also weird "blobs" that flash around the screen. These appear to be due to issues with the graphics driver as they do not occur on my systems with Intel and Nvidia graphics.

Run the game in a virtual desktop, as otherwise it will start minimised.

Wine wrapper
I have put together a Linux Wine wrapper for this game. For more information, see the release thread in the game's forum: https://www.gog.com/forum/xcom_enemy_unknown_complete_pack/xcom_enemy_unknown_for_linux

just for the record
the game has a (well working) native linux port available on steam.

I know; I just doubt that Feral will ever release it here (or otherwise make a DRM-free version available).

i was pretty sure that you would know about it :)
I just thought it would be nice to have the info stated in the context of this thread, in case there is somebody who doesn't know.
then everybody can make up their mind whether to buy the windows version here or the linux version on steam. (or simply boycott the game until they fix this crappy situation).

The Launcher works fine for me, that's tested in a new prefix, wine-mono wine-gecko packages installed, pointing to an earlier install, unless I did something to the install folder the launcher and the game play without anything else done to them. Using Wine Staging pretty sure the above has been the case since release, I recall being surprised by how straight forward it was, but currently on 3.21 on Arch. Just in case you feel like doing some additional poking.

does it work with gamepad correctly?

I only have a crappy generic one which doesn't work with this game.

I'm interested in knowing how Gekido Kintaro's Revenge runs in WINE.

sounds like a regression, cuz installation of said library didnt help to avoid segfault on wine 3.20

Feral pretty much admitted they don't want to release DRM-free, so I doubt it will happen. They seem to make good ports, but if they are so DRM obsessed, then good riddance. I'd say those who want to make Linux versions should avoid them. There are enough porters who have no problem with DRM-free releases.

Has anyone tried Fallen Haven or Fallen Haven: Liberation Day with Wine?

did anybody try Book of Demons? Due to issues with native port's performance, devs abandoned it, instead promised proton support. Wonder if it plays under wine without valve's patches

The first game has 256 color issues. I couldn't run it at all (although I haven't experimented with starting a dedicated X server in 8 bit mode). For the second game, I followed the instructions from here
liberation_day_on_linux_wine and I have the same issues as in the post: the game starts but is unplayable because the screen often flickers, turns black, etc.
