Feral have confirmed it will be an OpenGL title, so no Vulkan at launch. Of course, it's entirely possible they may update it in future to use Vulkan.

Quoting: LeopardOmg,how can you take that as Linux version is soon?

What i get from this,they didn't do literally anything.
Who said anything about soon?
Actually no,you don't.

My point is,in this situation it's pretty dead to me and i think it will never come for Linux and Mac.
Wow, you really are Mr Negative on GOL aren't you :huh:

I'm kidding, but seriously, he seems pretty clear about wanting to support us and is improving all of his tools to accommodate Linux and Mac. Still seems a pretty sure thing to me.

Quoting: rkfgUhh, what's up with that non-fully-crossplatform multiplayer?
As noted, I will have more information on that in the interview that will be ready after the release.
Quoting: KohriasThanks for the update, Liam. I have an AMD RX 480 but I am thinking about getting Civ VI despite the lack of official support. Does Aspyre give any indication about the state of the game on AMD?
Will have info on that at release.

Quoting: GuestIsn't it a bit weird they are favouring compatibility with an emulator (which hasn't made much strides in supporting multi thread) instead of actual games? I mean i use that said emulator but still i think the priority should be on the finished product (the games) while ongoing development emulators could then adapt to the new circumstances.
They aren't favouring anything, it was a single reference pointed out that it needs improvement. Lower performance in anything is a regression and regressions aren't good. If something has a regression with it, you can be almost guaranteed something else has been affected too.
