Planetary Annihilation is even more awesome now, and further shows Uber Entertainment is giving it great support. They have pushed out a massive new stable build recently, and it's great.

Space Colony: Steam Edition is revamp of Space Colony HD found on GOG, and previously the developers were only hopefully to do a Linux version. It seems like they are in progress right now!

0 A.D. is easily one of the most beautiful open source games around, but it has been plagued by poor performance. Hopefully this new and faster pathfinder is a step towards a rock solid game.

Civilization V is already a pretty massive game, and now even more so thanks to the continued support from Aspyr Media. Civ V now supports mods thanks to Steam Workshop on Linux.

RimWorld is the surprisingly awesome colony building sim from Ludeon Studios and Tynan Sylvester, and it has a big new alpha. The new trailer isn't half bad too.

The game was made available for Linux shortly after arriving on Steam Early Access last year, but is now officially released and available on Steam, Humble Store and GOG.

The latest expansion to the popular grand strategy series has been released. With a plethora of changes and additions, it is one of the most comprehensive expansions for the game yet.

XCOM 2 is going to be awesome, that’s pretty much a given. The annoying thing is we have to play catch up to IGN’s obviously paid for exclusivity here. IGN will be stretching it out as long as possible of course.

Massive Chalice was funded on Kickstarter two years ago, and after half a year in Steam Early Access, the full release is now available for Linux on GOG, Humble Bundle and Steam.

It seems that XCOM 2 has been announced after a teaser campaign by 2K. The AdventFuture.org website 2K brought online last week was now confirmed to be about XCOM and the reveal trailer was published. And best of all, there's a tiny little penguin and a certain feline as a mark of Linux support.

The big patch to Planetary Annihilation that I spoke about recently has been officially released. This makes the Linux client much more stable too.

It’s no secret that I love the visual style of Nightside, and this new update has boosted the content rather a lot.

Interloper is a small scale real time strategy that recently released for Linux, and it managed to capture my interest for being a bit different.

Uber Entertainment have been busy, and their work has shown in their latest public test build. It includes lots of new AI fixes and behaviours, as well as some promised Linux fixes!

Cities: Skylines is undoubtedly our best city builder on Linux, and the new content update makes it even sweeter.

Endless Legend was originally going to come to Linux, and then the developers decided it wasn't worth it. The Linux client had even been started and was looking good, but was dropped after the Windows and Mac OS clients were deemed too buggy. Now SteamOS has appeared in Amplitude's voting system for what to work on, and it needs votes.

You will have to forgive me on this one, as I never played a Cossacks game, but it is from the developers of STALKER. Cossacks 3 has been announced, and apparently Linux support too. Warning: Huge images!

Good news everyone! Civilization: Beyond Earth has announced an expansion called 'Rising Tide', and it will launch on Linux alongside Windows.

Planetary Annihilation is a great game, despite a few flaws here and there. It's my favourite strategy game on Linux, and the news is good.

If you’re a fan of 4X strategy games, then you will have probably heard of Master of Orion. Honestly, Master of Orion 2 is one of my all time favourite games, and now I can play it without any messing around on Linux.
