Aspyr Media have been extremely busy it seems, as they have just sent off code to bring Civilization Beyond Earth up to the same patch level as Windows. The bigger news is they have been teasing a new port.
I know what it is (I’m allowed to say that, trust me I checked first!), and no amount of drowning me in rum or fattening me up with cake is going to make me break. You will love it though, and Aspyr’s commitment to our platform is something truly awesome.
There’s this particular post on reddit that will get a lot of Linux gamers wondering, and it’s where this teaser comes from:
Aspyr_BlairAgreed...been a little quiet lately. Mostly because its all hands on deck for one game...and I mean ALL HANDS.
Of course I will not be giving it away (wild speculation is too much fun), but lets just say its a game that has been asked for literally thousands of times. It's also personally one of my favorite games of all time.
I can promise there will be many penguin smiles out there.
I’ve requested Samsai to do a special live stream when it is released, so we can bask in his glory. Or watch his failure, either’s good.
Begin the guessing game, and join me in riding the hype train. Article taken from GamingOnLinux.com.

Penguin smiles? Automatically made me think of Arkham City and not Tux.

So, apparently it's a game they haven't ported before. This would technically not rule out Tomb Raider, since it was ported to Mac by Feral, but apparently it's also a former Windows-only game.
And apparently I've never been on TV before...

Heck, yeah, someone's finally bringing Red Dead Redemption to PC. And because Rockstar didn't care to bring it to Windows, us Linux users will get it exclusively.
Big up Aspyr!

Hmm, All Hands, I'm thinking spaceships, I'm thinking Elite: Dangerous. :D I would then actually have time to play it occasionally!

I'm stumped, if you read the reddit they explicitly say not gta v or skyrim and they also say it's not a game in our existing mac catalogue so we can rule out:
skyrim
gta V
pretty much any COD
Tomb raider
A ton of lego games
the sims
dragon age
and more.

Quoting: tohurThink the game they are porting is WWE 2k15.I have a hard time imagining WWE is a game that's been requested from Aspyr thousands of times. Or that it's one of Aspyr_Blair's personal all time favorites, but everything's possible I guess.
