We know how terrible Larian has been at over-promising Divinity: Original Sin Enhanced Edition for Linux, but with the game now listing Linux on SteamDB they are actually working on it.

NOCT was really quite fun and freaky when I tried the beta, and now the developers have released it into Early Access on Steam to get some final spit and polish on it.

GALAK-Z has certainly caught my interest! I don't often like 2D space shooters, but when it looks this gorgeous I might take the punt on it.

Voxel Blast certainly caught my interest recently, as it reminds me of some really old 3D space shooter games I played as a teen, and the music is pretty damn cool too.

I'm always a bit iffy about posting online indie games, as niche games like this never usually have a big online following. It's no different for this game, and it really doesn't perform well on my machine.

Borderlands 2 & Borderlands The Pre-Sequel have been updated with some pretty beefy updates, and they include some little Linux fixes too.

I'm a bit behind due to all the fun tonight, but Insurgency is now fully available on Linux with a big update. It's also available dirt cheap in the latest Humble Bundle offering.

Alien: Isolation has officially been released for Linux, and continues our trend of great AAA games. I would recommend playing this from behind a pillow, with emergency pants nearby.

Play as a special ops combat unit sent to investigate why the stars around Solar System are going dark in MegaSphere. A gorgeous looking action platformer with story elements.

We mentioned that Murder Miners was on its way to Linux, and it has arrived already in beta form! I tested it out very quickly earlier, and it seems to run perfectly.

Heads up gamers! System Shock: Enhanced Edition is coming to Linux, and the developer said on twitter it will be a native port.

Descent: Underground has released into Early Access on Steam, and I took the punt and a look for you.

I forget that Natural Selection 2 is on Linux, mainly due to the dying player base and how dog slow it was to load, but it seems they are finally taking steps to improve that part of it.

Nuclear Throne is something of a dark horse, it doesn't look like much, but damn is it good when you get into it.

I have been waiting for Insurgency to come to Linux for over two years, and I'm glad to see the developers start to really make a push for us.

Freespace 2 is a space combat simulator game from way back in 1999, it may be old, but it has an official open source engine and you should really give it a run.

Good news folks, the Arma team is busy behind the scenes, and they are planning an update to the Linux beta port.

Vendetta: Curse of Raven’s Cry looks like it will be quite the upgrade over the poorly received Raven's Cry. I spoke with my TopWare contact who confirmed it will be free for Raven's Cry owners, with a little manual process.

Good news, Brigador is now available for Linux and it's pretty damn fun. I gave it the livestream treatment on Friday and it was well worth it.

Broforce might just be my new favourite game on Linux, and thanks to a follower I was gifted a copy to try out.
