Borderlands 2 & Borderlands The Pre-Sequel have been updated with some pretty beefy updates, and they include some little Linux fixes too.

I'm a bit behind due to all the fun tonight, but Insurgency is now fully available on Linux with a big update. It's also available dirt cheap in the latest Humble Bundle offering.

Alien: Isolation has officially been released for Linux, and continues our trend of great AAA games. I would recommend playing this from behind a pillow, with emergency pants nearby.

Play as a special ops combat unit sent to investigate why the stars around Solar System are going dark in MegaSphere. A gorgeous looking action platformer with story elements.

We mentioned that Murder Miners was on its way to Linux, and it has arrived already in beta form! I tested it out very quickly earlier, and it seems to run perfectly.

Heads up gamers! System Shock: Enhanced Edition is coming to Linux, and the developer said on twitter it will be a native port.

Descent: Underground has released into Early Access on Steam, and I took the punt and a look for you.

I forget that Natural Selection 2 is on Linux, mainly due to the dying player base and how dog slow it was to load, but it seems they are finally taking steps to improve that part of it.

Nuclear Throne is something of a dark horse, it doesn't look like much, but damn is it good when you get into it.

I have been waiting for Insurgency to come to Linux for over two years, and I'm glad to see the developers start to really make a push for us.

Freespace 2 is a space combat simulator game from way back in 1999, it may be old, but it has an official open source engine and you should really give it a run.

Good news folks, the Arma team is busy behind the scenes, and they are planning an update to the Linux beta port.

Vendetta: Curse of Raven’s Cry looks like it will be quite the upgrade over the poorly received Raven's Cry. I spoke with my TopWare contact who confirmed it will be free for Raven's Cry owners, with a little manual process.

Good news, Brigador is now available for Linux and it's pretty damn fun. I gave it the livestream treatment on Friday and it was well worth it.

Broforce might just be my new favourite game on Linux, and thanks to a follower I was gifted a copy to try out.

Storm United is probably one of my favourite FPS games right now, and the recent update has cemented that rather firmly.

RONIN is an action platformer with turn-based combat that was released for Windows this summer. The Linux version was released earlier this week, and if you act quickly you can buy it for half-off as part of the Steam Stealth Sale.

Third-person shooter adventure First Wonder has been confirmed for Linux upon successful funding on Kickstarter. The spiritual successor is being developed in Unreal Engine 4 by a team of veterans, including designer on MDK and Giants: Citizen Kabuto, Nick Bruty.

Zombasite is a brand new Zombie apocalypse RPG in Early Access, it looks good, and it's from the same developer that created Drox Operative.

I still haven't properly tried out Don't Be Patchman, but it looks cool. The funny bit of Wednesday news for you is that it's still the only game on Steam to only support Linux, and the Windows release is now delayed.
