I thought Unreal Engine 3 natively supports Linux. Is this not correct?

Dungeon Defenders is another UE3 powered game, and it runs great in Linux, even when playing split-screen multiplayer.
No, UE3 has no Linux target.

All available Linux versions are either a custom port or wrapped.
Dungeon Defenders was ported by Ryan "Icculus" Gordon.

So, a quick update - seems they've cranked up the repair efforts to eleven and the first major patch will be released within days. From the look of it, the game might actually be fixed by August, which is a good news for Linux gamers as well.

Don't care if it comes to Linux or not. Not buying any WB games any more.

If Feral is waiting for the fixed Windows version before they begin their port then we could be easily looking at a Q1 2016 release for Linux, unless by some miracle Feral has already begun the porting process and will stay on a track for a Q4 2015 release.

On the plus side, by the time the Linux version rolls around, it will probably be a "Game of the Year" edition with all DLC in one package like we're getting with the upcoming Shadow of Mordor.
