Tyranny is the huge new RPG from Obsidian Entertainment that myself and BTRE had the great pleasure of playing before release thanks to my contacts at Paradox Interactive, so here’s our thoughts.

After purchasing 'Motorsport Manager' at release, I was a bit confused as to why it had a SteamOS icon when it downloaded nothing. Sadly, it seems this is false advertising as the developers planned to release it for Linux later. Updated: After I contacted Valve, the SteamOS icon was removed.

'Super Rad Raygun' is a very retro looking action game with a visual style much like on the original gameboy. With it's sweet monochrome graphics, it's a blast from the past with a modern take.

'Red Comrades 2: For the Great Justice. Reloaded', is the sequel to a point & click adventure game about two Russian pop-culture legends.

Just a little warning if you were thinking of picking up Motorsport Manager, the Linux version on Steam currently downloads nothing.

The Linux developers at Unity have been plugging away on putting SDL2 into the Linux builds, and with Unity 5.6 it should be there.

Planetary Annihilation: TITANS is one of the best traditional real time strategy games available on Linux. The good news is that it is still being supported, and it's about to get another huge update this time aimed at performance.

I loved the first Half-Life, so the chance to revisit it in Black Mesa was too enticing to pass up, sadly though you may want to hold off for now.

Space Jammers is a very cool roguelike shooter that currently has a free demo version available, and now it's on Kickstarter to finish the job.

Planet Explorers has been in development for quite a while, with a Kickstarter in 2013 and Early Access in 2014 it has finally seen a full release.

A simple reply to a tweet is probably the most positive indication that we have seen yet for Civilization VI actually releasing on Linux.

It was only in September that Linux hit about 2,500 games on Steam and around a month later we've amassed another 200+, so if this keeps up it looks like we will break another milestone.

0 A.D. Alpha 21 Ulysses is the latest and greatest open source real time strategy game, and probably one of the most high quality open source games around.

Plenty of big releases recently, but let's not forget about the little guy. Super Blue Fighter, a casual arcade survival game now has Linux support.

Enter the Gungeon is the fast paced action dungeon crawler that's damn fun, but one issue I repeatedly had with it was the broken audio when you alt + tab, that's now fixed.

The newest simulation game for Linux, ‘Transport Fever’ is now available, and I spent some time with it before release to see if it is worth your monies.

Valve have updated Steam as promised with a fresh homepage, but they still haven't fixed it so when you select to only see Linux games, that you really do only see Linux games.

A simple game at heart, but an incredibly intense game thanks to the deeply evil atmosphere. Devil Daggers is an FPS where your only aim is to survive for as long as you can and beat not only your own previous score, but everyone else's at the same time.

Tomorrow I will be doing a double livestream special event. I will have my usual game of Dawn of War II against Sam and the community in Dawn of War II, but after that, I will be giving you a first preview of Obsidian Entertainment's Tyranny live on Linux.
