Feral Interactive are up to their usual funny business with a brand new Linux port teaser up on their radar.
This is now the second unannounced Linux game they're teasing (here's the other), so I can't wait to see what they have cooked up for us. The last teaser was put up a good few months ago now, so hopefully at least one of them will release soon. They're both in the outermost part of the radar, so they could still be a while away. We don't really know what "Quite Soon" actually means, it could end up being tomorrow, a week or more.
Anyway…here's the latest teaser from their port radar:
"It's just a shot away"
Begin the guessing games! What do you think this be? Exciting! I'm sure these won't be the only titles this year too, let's see if they can truly surprise us.

Quoting: chepatiI wish Feral would stop these teases and instead would plainly announce what games they've acquired the rights to port. The sooner, the better. In fact, if possible *before* the windows release date. This will make sure that linux gamers who want to play a particular game can hold off on the purchase until the game is released on linux. I have 4-5 games that I had no inkling would ever get a linux port and bought them on windows. Had I known, I would have waited and given Feral my money.
Feral, if you're reading this, please reconsider your PR strategy.
We announce titles as early as feasibly possible. Until it's time to announce them, we can have Feral Radar clues or we can have good old-fashioned tumbleweeds.

After some thought, I'd have to go with Vampyr. For no other reason than that it appears to be my type of game.
Since Feral has worked with Dontnod before, it is not impossible. It would be a different project for Feral though. Vampyr is a UE4 game and it's not so much porting the game, as it is dealing with all the problems that may occur while building and running it on Linux. Mac should be easier since the Metal implementation of UE4 appears to be reasonably solid.

I totally know that you're already doing your best and that you don't control everything in that regard but... My wish to the universe... Please make it so that Feral may fill that radar with Linux goodies! Make it a rainbow again! It was so exciting, back then! ;)
Keep doing your awesome work Feral!

I wasn't being sarcastic, when I said that I wished for more teasers, if this is what you think. I really wish for a come back to 2016. At the time we saw peaks at 6 or 7 Linux signals on the radar and we were eader for the next surprise. It was awesome, back then.

Ok then... That's what I wanted to verify. Wasn't sure... Text, sometimes, doesn't quite demonstrate the intention and since my first language is not english, I might do some formulation mistakes and wrongly interpret some comments. The last thing I want is to offend anybody. I value too much GamingOnLinux and Feral to do such things.
Keep doing your awesome work you too.
