Have there been any reliable leaks on timing? Are we thinking like a year from now, or maybe even as close as this winter/spring?They've said that they'll announce a release date early next year. Whether the release will also be early or later in the year we won't know till they announce it.

The most interesting bit is that headset running SteamOS on ARM and the steam page claiming that it's able to play games in situ, without streaming.https://www.gamingonlinux.com/2025/11/codeweavers-launch-a-new-crossover-preview-adding-linux-arm64-support/

d3d7 is a land of highly cursed API inter-operability, and applications that for one reason or another mix and match d3d7 with older ddraw (not ddraw7) and/or with GDI are not expected to ever workdgvoodoo2 (converts old DirectX into newer DirectX) is closed-source, so couldn't be included directly, but the author of that tool has likely worked through those quirks for many games already; it's probably worth having a conversation.

Not that I necessarily mind but can anyone tell me, is this normal?It's a standard package management thing that if a version of a package is losing support for whatever reason then having that package will instead pull in a newer version that does have support. You won't normally be moved between branches otherwise.

It's all I use it for.That's sad. You should definitely try to make time for recreational gaming, and the Deck is a great device for that.

CodeWeavers' Meredith Johnson notes how "we envisage CrossOver as a viable solution for migrating enterprise Windows workloads to Linux for improved security and reduced bloat".Steam on Arm machines also seems like a tastier prospect now this work's been done.
