Something Linux gamers have been requesting time and time again is going to happen! Star Citizen is heading to Linux Chris Roberts stated at a panel at PAX.
They have so far raised a whopping $41 MILLION+ in their own crowdfunding done via their official website. The game is built with CryEngine, so it is no surprise Chris has finally announced the game will support Linux!
The game will come in two "editions" which reading up on it are two separated games. There will be Star Citizen the MMO and Squadron 42 which will be a single-player and drop-in co-op multiplayer game.
The most interesting thing is that Star Citizen will allow for private servers too, that sounds pretty fun.
You can find plenty of videos about the game on their youtube, seems odd to not have many on their actual website.
The game isn't cheap though, the cheapest pack is $30 and if you want alpha/beta access you need to go higher again for $40! Article taken from GamingOnLinux.com.

I was waiting for this announcement to buy this game. But also I need to see it running on linux. I won't want to buy a game only with a promise and then have to wait more than a year more than the other (windows) people to play with it. Hope it will be in part with the other os versions.It was running on Ubuntu at PAX.

I paid $1250 for Star Citizen. I will NEVER load the game on any platform except Linux. I want to send a message. I will pay top dollar, and only top dollar for Linux AAA tier space simulator gaming. I own Windows and Macintosh platforms as well, but Linux is the only system I want to game on. This news makes me so happy. I'm a massive fan of Wing Commander. I own every Wing Commander game and when Chris announced Star Citizen. I threw money into it. It's great to see loyalty as a fan rewarded with loyalty from the developer. I look forward to seeing the final game. I've basically been waiting 13 years for this.
