Albion Online is something I have kept on eye on for sometime now, and since I’ve been playing it during the closed beta period here are my initial thoughts on it. This is not a full review, as I will do that once it’s completely out.
Albion Online launches into Closed Beta next week, and with my copy secure and ready to go on the 25th for my backer level I couldn't be more excited. I am especially happy after seeing this video on the combat.
War Thunder is a pretty popular MMO that's for sure, and it had a lot of people excited when it came to Linux. It has recently been updated with some big new stuff.
KWAAN is a game we completely missed covering, it never appeared in Steam's new release section for Linux either as the Linux version was released after the initial Windows version. It's a weird (but interesting) looking 2D online RPG.
Today I'd like to cover a game I didn't know existed only a few days back, a game out of a genre that is heavily under represented on our beloved platform, a(n old-school) sandbox MMORPG named Albion Online!
I am always hesitant to cover any crowdfunding campaigns, but I think Voxelnauts has just won me over. All development is done on Linux, they have video's showing it, and it looks like a great game.
Shadowrun Chronicles: Boston Lockdown, formerly known as Shadowrun Online, came out of Early Access last week. The tactical turn-based game is the latest set in the cyberpunk Shadowrun universe and the second that takes a crack at multiplayer. As a fan of the setting, I decided to take a close look at the game and see if it was any good.
Gates of Horizon is a new space MMORPG that was released recently, it is developed with Unity3D and already has a client for Linux (and Mac and Windows as well of course) it is also about to release its Android and iOS clients soon.
Shroud of the Avatar: Forsaken Virtues aims to be a rather massive RPG. I say it aims to be as it's currently in early access, and it has a long way to, but it looks great already.
Though we already knew about War Thunder's Linux port back in June the release was still quite sudden and unexpected. So, let's find out if it's worth our time and how the F2P model works.
Shadowrun Online was confirmed to be heading to Linux, but the question has always remained when? They use Unity much like a lot of developers now, but noted Unity's Linux support still needed some work for them to be comfortable releasing a Linux version. Luckily now it looks be "soon". UPDATED.
I'll get right to the point -- why do I think Stash: No Loot Left Behind deserves a penguin clan? The game is currently being funded on Kickstarter and only needs a little push!
Robocraft is a surprisingly fun free 2 play game now on Linux. You build your own vehicle and have it out with other people across the globe with some amusing designs.
Untold Universe is a space voxel sandbox MMORPG. Explore, shape, colonize and conquer a huge and uncharted universe! It sounds interesting, but is it worth a look?
