Aspyr Media have done it again! Civilization: Beyond Earth is now officially available for Linux, and we have keys to throw through the screen.

It's fantastic that it was ported as quickly as this, and the communication in public from Aspyr Media has been fantastic. Other bigger developers could learn a thing or two from Aspyr.

About the game
Sid Meier's Civilization: Beyond Earth is a new science-fiction-themed entry into the award-winning Civilization series. Set in the future, global events have destabilized the world leading to a collapse of modern society, a new world order and an uncertain future for humanity. As the human race struggles to recover, the re-developed nations focus their resources on deep space travel to chart a new beginning for mankind.

As part of an expedition sent to find a home beyond Earth, you will write the next chapter for humanity as you lead your people into a new frontier and create a new civilization in space. Explore and colonize an alien planet, research new technologies, amass mighty armies, build incredible Wonders and shape the face of your new world. As you embark on your journey you must make critical decisions. From your choice of sponsor and the make-up of your colony, to the ultimate path you choose for your civilization, every decision opens up new possibilities.

I love Aspyr and GOL but I dont want to get any key. :P I havent played their games yet but I'll play soon for sure. =)

For me, the most important attribute of Linux is the pleasant circumstance that people do stuff because they like it and not because of damn money. That is connected with the great idea of Open Source software in general. Let beings do what they want and they do it with passion! I see nothing but advantages. "Gaming On Linux" is a pretty good memory of that perfect and natural concept.

I love Linux and whomever else loves Linux gets my love as well. It's as simple as that.

GOL, where would I be with out good games? I would have the most pathetic wishlist of Linux games ever!
Aspyr, I love how that you have made games that were never made to be on Linux! where would gaming be without you?
tuxisagamer Dec 18, 2014
I love GOL cuz you guys are freaking awesome! Best source for Linux gaming news on all the interwebs.

And I love Aspyr for promoting my favorite platform and trying to put it on equal footing with the 2 other better known x86 platforms.
