As promised when we told you it would come. Sanctum 2 is now downloadable on Steam for Linux by opting into the "linuxbeta" branch on Steam.
It comes with a nice warning panel too:
It's a good job too as it instantly quits when the game should startup after the inital comic-strip for me and others I've spoken to about it.
So, it's there, but it doesn't seem to work well just yet.
Samsai did a quick video on it to show it off:

About Sanctum 2
Sanctum 2 is the sequel to the world’s first Tower Defense/FPS hybrid game. Pick from four unique character classes and embark on a mission to protect the oxygen-producing Cores from hordes of deadly aliens who are threatened by their existence. Outfit your character exactly the way you want through the new and extensive customization system. Choose your own loadout of towers, weapons and perks, but choose wisely because you are humanity’s last defense against the unrelenting hordes set out to destroy it.
Sanctum 2 is a new game completely rebuilt from the ground up using community feedback and innovative design to really push the bar of what an independent studio can do.

A tip for downloading the beta: switch to the beta before downloading anything. I downloaded 700mb of non-beta, got a missing executable, and had to download 1,2gb again.

had texture issues: http://cloud-2.steampowered.com/ugc/3335221527286699866/D9A7196B923F3558FEB799285461FFD633C42A3A/
-turns out it was the texture setting at high. works fine when set to medium
-mouse is little bit jerky (seems some sort of weird mouse smoothing or acceleration)
mouse smoothing option in menus doesnt help
-resolution is always set to 1280x1024 when i start up the game, have to change it every time
other than that seems to work pretty well, except few "loading" freezes

Read the post it's clearly stated that it's a beta filled with buggs.

Uh.. What a shame: Crashes instantly when loading a game.
Well better wait for the final release then.

Seemed to work pretty well for me, considering the warning. Played through the intro level no problem but crashed to desktop at the start of the next.
Looks like it'll be a fun game when it's polished up and a steal at that price.
