This is the best summary I could come up with:

AMD announced back during CES the Radeon RX 7600 XT as a $329 USD graphics card for 1080p/1440p gaming.

It shouldn't be surprising given AMD's trajectory in the Radeon open-source GPU support over recent years and the maturity of the rest of the RDNA3 GPU line-up, but there is fully open-source and upstream support for the Radeon RX 7600 XT for launch day.

On the likes of Ubuntu 23.10 and Fedora Workstation 39 with software updates is out-of-the-box support for the Radeon RX 7600 XT 16GB graphics card.

For those curious, and since it's been a while since having my hands on an XFX graphics card, XFX does list "Linux" support on the product packaging for this Radeon RX 7600 XT... Then again it's been fairly common to see across AMD's AIB partners but always fun seeing Linux mentions.

As is usually the case, the newer Linux kernel and Mesa you feel comfortable running, typically the better performance and features.

Via the standard Radeon Software for Linux packaged drivers is going to be the RX 7600 XT support if unable/unwilling to upgrade your kernel or Mesa manually.
