Wine 8.9 brings updated VKD3D and Wayland improvements.
Wine-Staging 8.9, a more testing/development-focused flavor of Wine, is now available with just under 500 patches over upstream Wine. The only addition is now shipping the very latest VKD3D for Direct3D 12 over Vulkan. Wine-Staging now plans to pull in routine Git snapshots of the latest VKD3D development code, allowing easier testing of Wine's VD3D code before appearing in released form. Wine and Wine-Staging downloads of the new v8.9 milestone are available from WineHQ.org.
