Woah! Holy Sh...Deus Ex: Mankind Divided looks like it may be getting a Linux & SteamOS release which has literally blown my tiny little mind.

There's a rather large bit of info here on SteamDB, where you can see stuff like this:
Quotelaunch/9/config/oslist: linux
launch/9/executable: DeusExMD.sh
launch/9/type: none

And this:
Quote337001/encryptedmanifests/domesticated_mac_linux_sync/encrypted_gid_2: 973A3491BA8BBFE16CAF17F204300E1B


Obviously no word on a release date and this is not confirmed anywhere. It's good supporting evidence though.

Reminder: We have seen Linux pop up on SteamDB before and a port never happened. Just something to keep in mind.

Exciting either way though, as the game is being very well reviewed all around from what I can see. I actually played and finished the one directly before this and loved it. You can bet I will play the crap out of it if/when it's released for us.

About the game
The year is 2029, and mechanically augmented humans have now been deemed outcasts, living a life of complete and total segregation from the rest of society.

Now an experienced covert operative, Adam Jensen is forced to operate in a world that has grown to despise his kind. Armed with a new arsenal of state-of-the-art weapons and augmentations, he must choose the right approach, along with who to trust, in order to unravel a vast worldwide conspiracy.

Looks like I wasn't the only one to check steamdb just after release ;-) It's there with depots and a configuration, so more than just a hint.

Also, that makes my invisible forum post rather pointless. How long do you get moderator queued on there for new discussions?

Looks to me like a feral port possibly, would make sense, since they've been porting other things for Square Enix recently, like Tomb Raider.

I approve all users forum posts twice until they leave the mod queue, it's completely stopped forum spam for us.

Now that's interesting, as I remember David Anfossi (boss of Eidos Montreal, developer of Deus Ex HR & MD) teasing with a picture of a Steam Machine a while ago on Twitter. I thought that maybe they were doing tests for a Linux port of HR but had abandoned it, as there had been no follow up afterwards.

One awesome port after another, Feral is on fire!

Before Square Enix is thinking about a SteamOS-/Linux-Version of "DeusEx Mankind Dvided" , they should port the predecessor "Deus Ex: Human Revolution Director's Cut" first.

Pretty interesting, but a pity it's Square Enix. Low chances of it coming out DRM-free.

I'm hoping but everytime I see a AAA game rumoured to come to Linux/SteamOS, most developers or publishers backtrack a couple of months later. Lets wait and see.
