Mount & Blade: Warband Now In Beta For Linux

While not yet officially announced Mount & Blade: Warband is out for Linux, downloadable and might even be playable for you. Mount & Blade: Warband is a medieval combat game that looks pretty good and has plenty of good reviews to back it up. Our Samsai tested it out and reported it working with a great framerate, so early reports are good.

QuoteWow, you guys are fast :) We're still testing some stuff before announcing the beta. The launcher uses 32 bit qt4. I thought I included necessary libraries but I guess I missed some. We could only test the game on Ubuntu 12.04 so I'm open to any suggestions about making the game more compatible on various distros.

Wow, this is freaking awesome. Mount and Blade is a fantastic game and it runs pretty well using Wine. I am really surprised they would port it to Linux. I think I'm going to buy a second copy just so I can support the Linux port.
