These, as far as i’m aware, have come straight from steam. I’ve searched for these online but haven’t found anyone else getting the same error.

good shout, although had already deleted them when you replied. will try and remember for next time
There is a change for a cross OS malware but it’s probably still quite small.
I would just remove them, and then if they dont re-appear after checking game file consistency then its’s mostly likely not a false positive.
But if you know that last playerd is most likely before you installed current OS then it should be clean. I would check user level autostart and cronjob (so mostly stuff in $HOME/.config) places if something didnt get added, go ahead with life.
Unless you are doing banking and other critical stuff on this machine then I would be thinking of hardedning the OS in some way and/or reinstalling.
