The invasion has begun. XCOM: Enemy Unknown is now available on Linux and you can help stop the alien invasion right now.
QuoteSince its inception, the XCOM Project has scoured the globe in search of the best and brightest military and scientific personnel to defend Earth from the alien invasion.
Today marks the availability of a new technology that will enable even more world-class recruits to join the fight, as XCOM: Enemy Unknown is released for Linux.
XCOM: Enemy Unknown is a SteamPlay title that runs on Ubuntu 14.04 and Valve’s SteamOS. The base game and all the add-on content, including the explosive expansion pack XCOM: Enemy Within, are available now from Steam.
Rookies should report to the XCOM: Enemy Unknown Steam information page for a briefing.

Let us know what you think to it, as for me it will be my first time playing it. Check it out on Steam now.
With the Steam sales happening very soon it may be an idea to hold off on buying it just yet. That is unless you want to support Feral with as much cash as you can throw at the screen for porting to Linux then go ahead right now.
We should have an interview with the guys at Feral soon, so keep an eye out for that too folks.

Its a shame than gaming in Linux still sucks. The r600 driver is still not good enough. Luckily I have windows too.

:D:D:D! Boy, has the last four weeks been a great time to be a Linux gamer! Being a long-time fan of turn-based games, I bought this for Windows ~16 months ago. Would have played it more, but that would require booting into the annoyance that I found Windows 7 to be. Now, I don't have that excuse!

Quoting: JoeI'd recommend getting it on sale during the Steam summer sale that is supposed to start today. Good timing :)Since we are Linux users, I suggest that we don't cheap out, especially for high profile games such as this. Developers and publishers should know that their efforts will be rewarded.
