As it says in the title, gamescope carches immediatelly after launching.
Steam generates this error log

I had an issue with Gamescope back in March:

Gamescope-git blocking KDE Plasma 6 install, afterwards cannot be installed again

Opening up Konsole and entering: sudo pacman -S gamescope should get you gamescope from the Extra repo. Be warned that there has been a report from one user saying that version was somehow messed up their Steam. (I have not verified this yet, so there could be something else at play here) Gamescope-git conflicting files I will also link the wiki page about snapshots here, just in case things really break and you ever need to rollback to a prior snapshot:

Either the problem was not fixed, or a new Kernel broke it. I personally have uninstalled it and haven’t looked back.

Maybe try the LTS Kernel, it might work with it.
Otherwise, someone else might have further ideas or knowledge about this.

@mad Thanks for the reply!!
Changing to LTS didn’t work
But at least i got a different error message

Also I found this post while looking for the first error message

It seems to be the same issue but i didn’t understand the fix suggested

[LolFlasherNoobX]

Well take a look at this reddit post and after reading the fix you linked to , you need to switch to RADV drivers for AMD, this reddit post explains how to do so very comprehensively and simply:
