Cyberpunk 2077, probably. The game maxed out will destroy your graphics card but the graphics are undoubtedly gorgeous.

Horizon Forbidden West also has really good graphics.

I second Horizon. There are moments where I’m convinced the graphics are pre-rendered when cranked to the max.

I second Cyberpunk, ray tracing enabled or not. That game truly captures a realistic dystopian world in the best way possible.

I just started playing ghost of tsushima on my steam deck and it’s fucking gorgeous even on low settings, so I assume that would be pretty beautiful maxed out too.

Alan Wake 2 is probably the best looking game running on any system, it works on Linux via Proton

You can look for specific games on protondb.com to get a good idea of how they run.

I don’t chase high-end PC gaming anywhere near enough to name a single game that is known for realism.
