Quoting: SlayerTheChikkenThis is great, maybe I switched timelines or something, is this still the bad timeline just with sprinkles of hope?
instead of making newer gaming devices more affordable they're trying to keep what gamers they have left around with a software upgrade they should've put out a year ago... Im happy my 6600 will probably benefit, but this is just more sprinkles.
Legendary, the free and open source Epic Games Launcher, has moved to a new organisation

Heroic is great! I've been playing Rocket League since day one and I wouldn't be able to play my favorite game now on Linux without it. Releasing the knowledge to the community is the best way to handle this. Thank you!
Heroic Games Launcher v2.19 released adding ZOOM Platform, AppImage updates and more

well dang! I have been on v2.17 forever cuz 2.18 broke EVERYTHING for me and I had to rollback. It conflicts with Steam open for some games, and controller goes crazy in the menu from time to time.

I may have to give 2.19 a try since "improved gamepad" would be a big deal.
ARC Raiders has a new content-filled roadmap for early 2026

I'm just under 100hrs in and am still loving it! My blueprint hunt has been very weird. I only have the weirdest stuff, none of the guns and parts that are helpful.😅

Hopefully, Embark gets to be the next poster child studio for Valve and the Steam Machine.
MangoHud performance overlay for Linux v0.8.2 released

yes! I keep it on for streams so people that are interested can see my usage numbers. I don't exactly know what I'm doing with it, so any updates are good updates!!
Linux users have no reason to worry about recent AMD GPU driver changes

Definitely sounds like AMD is laying the groundwork for a forced upgrade path. Open source drivers wins again. My RX6600 is safe!

...they were proactive with valve about Linux support AND emailed the Linux press about their intentions?? Impressive!
The extraction shooter ARC Raiders is out and appears to work on Linux

I have been LOVING The Finals on Linux, but I certainly worry about the future. I have been following ARC Raiders since the initial trailer so I can't help but pick it up. However, their unresponsiveness to your emails is also disappointing.... huge youtube creators campaign, interviews at twitchcon, but a popular press blog cant get any love?

Hopefully putting up some cash will help move the needle on some spreadsheet somewhere to show how powerful and passionate Linux gamers are/can be.

I didn't know there was a "like" button at the end of the articles. Can I hit it like 5 more times?
Embark Studios confirm rollout of Denuvo Anti-Cheat for THE FINALS
23 Oct 2025 at 4:17 pm UTC
Denuvo is the last and also worst thing I thought they could do. I finished a script for a video idea about The Finals and ARC Raiders potentially being the next Linux darlings for the steam deck....

I really hope they dont mess this up.
