You may or may not remember that I recently broke the news that Two Worlds II was finally coming to Linux & SteamOS along with major engine upgrades. The better news is that it's going to be on GOG for Linux, and have less annoying restrictions.
The 0 A.D. developers sent word out today that the packaging for alpha 20 has begun, and release candidate testing will happen soon. I've done some highlights of what's to come!
Something I have been speaking about with Topware since 2013 is finally going to happen! Two Worlds II is getting a major engine upgrade, with new DLC and SteamOS & Linux support too.
Update: It's not releasing then, it was a glitch in their news. Feral Interactive announced today that Tomb Raider will release for Linux on April 1st, so it's going to be a fun weekend!
If you're eager to see how the Linux port of Tom Raider is running, you might want to check Feral Interative's twitch on March 30th at 6PM GMT (So that's UTC+1 as the UK switches to summer time this weekend).
Fear not ARK lovers, as ARK: Survival Of The Fittest is confirmed to be coming to Linux. We don't know when exactly, but it's at least in their plans for release.
Hyper Light Drifter is one I have kept an eye on since the Kickstarter, as graphically it looks vibrant and beautiful. The good news is the release date now set as the 31st of March should include Linux too.
Not exactly gaming news, but could be useful for developers. Dwango has obtained the rights to the animation software Toonz used by Studio Ghibli and plan to release an open source version named OpenToonz.
