Paradox fans may want to know that Hearts of Iron IV is officially available to pre-order and there's a trailer.

Overfall is a game I really think you guys need to own, when I tried out recently I found the mix of exploration, story encounters and combat to be really quite awesome.

I love Tycoon styled games and Blueprint Tycoon is a weird entry. I mean that in a nice way, as it's great to see some innovation.

Atriage is one title I missed due to Steam's failure to show games that produce a Linux version after the Windows release in the Linux newly released section. Atriage is a turn-based strategy game inspired by Sci-fi space naval battles in 80s Anime where you command a fleet of ten warships against a rival commander.

Civilization VI has been announced, the publisher has confirmed to me that Linux will be supported and the official twitter account has also confirmed Linux will be supported.

I recently covered Solar Division and while I liked most of what it had to offer, the game was just too easy. The developers agreed with me and they have not only balanced some tower types, they have also introduced difficulty levels.

Infinium Strike is a pretty damn interesting looking space action and strategy game. I like the mix of styles the game has and it will include a proper campaign, sold!

Stellaris is the brand new space strategy game from Paradox that will launch today with day 1 Linux support. I was able to play it and livestream it before release, so here are some thoughts.

I actually really liked where XCOM went with X-COM: Apocalypse, it had issues sure, but it had some interesting features. Like OpenXcom, OpenApoc will be a fully featured open source engine. The new video showing their progress is fantastic.

Thanks to the Paradox twitter team I now have access to Stellaris! I will be booting up a special Livestream tonight.

XCOM 2's new DLC named Alien Hunters is due for general release on May 12th, but it's possible the Linux release may be delayed as Feral Interactive are simply saying "Soon".

Shadow Tactics: Blades of the Shogun certainly reminds me of the old Commandos game I played a lot when I was younger and who doesn't like ninjas?

Recently I put out an article about Blitzkrieg 3 coming to Linux. The Linux icon is prominently featured in their latest trailer, but after speaking to them on Facebook it seems it still has no ETA.

I managed to grab a key to Solar Division thanks to the publisher, so I decided to check out this interesting looking Tower Defence game to see if it's worth your tux bucks.

If you're a fan of games like Risk you might want to have a look into the free to play Age of Conquest IV which recently released.

Parkitect is one of those indie games that's near the top of my list for what could be the "next big thing". The developers have put out the first alpha of their park simulator and it's coming to Steam on Thursday.

Duskers is the really rather slick exploration, strategy and roguelike mix that has a seriously cool graphical style. Linux is now officially supported and it's leaving Early Access this month.

Blitzkrieg 3 is a pretty great looking World War II strategy game that is currently in Early Access on Steam. It seems it's coming soon to GOG and this new trailer even has a Linux icon.

Today is the day we get another popular game! Darkest Dungeon is now officially available on Linux, ported by Aaron from Knockout Games.

Well now, Shock Tactics was emailed in by a reader and it has to be one of the most interesting games I've seen recently. It seems to blend aspects of Civilization with XCOM!
