And found a solution:
Remove the prefix. Launch again and it'll build a new prefix and it'll work again.
This fixed it on my desktop and Steam Deck. Protontricks can find the prefix.
It feels like they usually goof up these Halo updates. 🫤
My wild guess is that it needs a newer version of something (probably EAC?) and it isn't updated? But redoing the prefix sets up the latest version? 🤷

I wonder why that did the trick for me on my desktop and Deck, and it also worked for a friend of mine on his Deck too... and why it didn't work for you. 😔
But this isn't the first time Halo has had a buggy update. Hopefully they'll fix this one soon, properly.
