This file is required to play Overwatch 2 properly. Some updates may require more cache process. Your computer needs that cache file to run graphics faster. It compiles shader caches itself and this is a very long and exhausting work for your hardware. So that pre-compiled shaders caches may help you in this case.
I installed Overwatch 2 via Lutris and I publish that file for Lutris. You can use this file with other installer scripts. I just wanted to share this as one-liner command to apply.
Before running the command below, be sure you launched the game at least once. Then you can download the cache file.
curl https://github.com/Elagoht/overwatch2-dxvkcache/raw/master/Overwatch.dxvk-cache -o ~/Games/overwatch-2/Overwatch.dxvk-cache
Then you can start to play Overwatch 2.
Please consider that. My GPU runs the game stable 144 FPS. But on the maps that have complete shader caches. Lower Graphs results better FPS and lesser shuttering.

You can create Pull Requests to update that file when needed. But you must use https://github.com/DarkTigrus/dxvk-cache-tool to merge your cache file with the cache file in this repo. Generated cache file must be higher file size than this cache file.
