Yeah that's nice.

There's only three titles left for now that I'd love to see on Linux:

1. Elite Dangerous
2. The Witcher 3
3. Fallout 4 (lowest priority - but at this place because well - the list only has 3)...

I'd say games based on Valve's Source engine. Maybe the first game to be updated will be Dota 2 (considering it's Valve's most played game [External Link].
To be honest I'd be heavily underwhelmed but yes - you're probably right.

what might those mysterious games be?
I'm betting TW3. Obviously they've been working in-house porting it without giving any further information on progress etc.
Also they've been saying that they will push out additional content to TW3 in the year 2016 which brought the game back to the possible port radar for me after most users (especially on steam) already were confident that they'll solely be working on cyberpunk after the release of Blood & Wine. That possibly isn't true..

Then there was the mysterious "Enhanced Edition" failure for some sellers, which they outright denied without saying that there's no such thing being made - and furthermore saying that "that's some error we (CDPR) will be looking into". The last thing kinda got me as that reads like someone might have violated a NDA...
Then the galaxy client is marked as "in progress" and I don't think that they're working on that without planning at least some kind of sale for the client release.

Exciting times.
