Is this Sof.exe a false postive?

[GameCollector21]

Is Sof.exe a false positive? I patched the Good Old Games Soldier of Fortune main executable Sof.exe with the SoF patch (sofplus-client-patch-20140531-gog.zip) from https://sof1.megalag.org/sofplus/. As you can see here: https://support.gog.com/hc/en-us/articles/360009978233-Soldier-of-Fortune-Platinum-Edition?product=gog

GOG recommends this patch to get the game running:  

"Known solutions to game issues

• Soldier of Fortune - SoFplus

  If you encountering issues with the Soldier of Fortune, some might be fixed by installing this unofficial patch which is available HERE.

  - Please download the archive with SoFplus(client version)
  - Unpack it to the game installation folder(default: C:\GOG Games\Soldier of Fortune).

  If the game was installed via GALAXY, please select the game in GALAXY, click on the icon on the right side of the PLAY button -> Manage Installation -> Show Folder
  
  - Launch sofplus-client-patch.cmd
  - Unpack files from the .zip into the game installation folder and overwrite files when asked"

  However, after patching the game Malwarebytes sees it as MachineLearning/Anomalous.100%. While the patch itself shows no detections as far as I can tell, Soldier of Fortune's main executable does afterwards. I can't get the game to run without it so I need to know if it isn't a false positive so I can refund the game to GOG.
