This is completely unconfirmed, but "The Witcher 2 Linux Beta Retail" is now an entry on SteamDB as of today.

About
Thanks to the new, ultra-modern REDengine, The Witcher 2: Assassins of Kings features both beautiful graphics and sophisticated in-game mechanics, drawing players into the most lively and believable world ever created in a video game.

Defining new standards for realistic, non-linear game narration, The Witcher 2 spins a mature, thought-provoking tale to produce one of the most complex and unique RPGs ever released on consoles. In addition to its epic story, the game features a complex combat system that uniquely combines dynamic action and tactical depth.

This is crazy, it's a fantastic looking game and I am so full of excitement right now it's unreal.

If you have a retail key, you can get the game from GOG here: https://secure.gog.com/witcher/backup
When Linux version will come out, it will appear on GOG. That's going to happen sometime in fall.

Well, I found it in my Linux Steam library, having bought it for Windows some time ago. I downloaded all 16GB, but the executable has not yet been made available.

I am patient. I can wait. For a while.

I don't expect it to be usable until GOG will roll out Linux support in the fall.
