Civilization: Beyond Earth is coming to Linux and the Linux release has been cleared up a bit in terms of when we can expect it.
Russ Looney of Aspyr Media (<3) who will be porting the game and who also run the GameAgent store confirmed it on their official blog:
Not exactly a solid date, but it's great to see it really won't be very far behind. Aspyr Media have been up to rather a lot for us recently haven't they!
When they say Holiday season that will most likely be December at an educated guess.
You can pre-order it now from GameAgent for the Linux version and support Aspyr Media. You also support GamingOnLinux by using and buying from that link. Article taken from GamingOnLinux.com.

I am saddened to be correct in my assumption.
Banished, Transistor and Banner Saga are pretty far up there in the "we're working on Linux, really!" club.
I can kinda understand with these one or two person shops, but wow.
It would be interesting to know why it takes long time to port games for Linux; are the tools bad, lack of experience with OpenGL, performance issues, etc.
As we have seen even bigger companies has been struggling with performance on Linux - Borderlands, Tropico 5, etc.
