Linux Gaming is dead they said, Linux Gaming is pointless they said...ah whatever. Here’s a look at what’s to come for us in 2015 and beyond.
It's pretty hard to keep up with everything that's going on for us, but here's a quick look at what we could see soon.
Confirmed Games
Adventure Games
Firewatch
Paradise Lost: First Contact
Outcast 1.1
SteamWorld Heist
Action Games
Darksiders
Darksiders II
Ray's The Dead
Skullgirls
FPS Games
Bioshock Infinite
Half Life 3 /troll
Homefront: The Revolution
Insurgency
Killing Floor 2
Serious Sam 4 (No official site for it yet)
Storm United
SUPERHOT
Platformers
Broforce
Chasm
Giana Sisters
Heart Forth, Alicia
Hot Tin Roof
Infinifactory
Mighty No. 9
Night in the Woods
Noct
Oddworld: New 'N' Tasty
Red Goddess
Racing
Project Cars
Carmageddon: Reincarnation
RPG Games
Divinity: Original Sin
Pillars Of Eternity
Shadowrun: Hong Kong
The Banner Saga
Torment: Tides of Numenera
Strategy Games
Age of Wonders III
At The Gates
Banished
Cities: Skylines
Clockwork Empires
Parkitect
Scrolls
Space Pirates And Zombies 2
Sandbox Games
Terraria
X Rebirth
Sports
Out of the Park Baseball 16
Unconfirmed, but highly likely (or confirmed and for some reason not quite as solid)
Company of Heroes 2
Outlast
Shadow Warrior
Sunless Sea - The developers have experimental builds for Linux, but it depends how the Windows version sells (from my email chat with them)
Torchlight II
Then there’s the two ports teased from Feral Interactive, we can’t let them be left out just because we don’t know what they are.
We imagine Aspyr Media are also working on new bigger ports, but they have only just released their latest game, so it may be a few months until we see anything.
This isn't a complete list of course, as we can easily forget with the sheer amount of games heading our way, and wow what a list!
We have GDC next month, and we are expecting a few announcements too. While we don't have anything solid, with Valve's big presence with Steam Machines we are expecting at least some more Linux games, otherwise it we fear it may be a little lacklustre for Valve to only show off older existing games for Linux.

I'm sooooo psyched for Star Citizen!!!
Unfortunately the release is set for 2016. However, the single player 1st episode installment is planned for 2015. We don't have news on whether that will come with Linux builds though, but Linux (eventual?) release is confirmed.
At the moment they don't have any Linux builds out yet (it's still pre-alpha), although they have a Windows Arena Commander pre-alpha module out at the moment. FPS and social module are also planned for next month (March), but probably not on Linux.

"Darkest Dungeon" a very stylish and promising rpg, is supposed to be released for linux, although not at the same time as the initial windows release in Q1.
"Serpent in the Staglands", another very promising rpg with a linux release soonish.
"Outcast 1.1." Not a remake or sequel, but an improved version of the original is supposed to come to linux in 2015.
I'm also eagerly awaiting news about "Endless Legend" & "Endless Space", with some luck one of those might show up in 2015 too.

On a side note:
Please update this list, if there is a promised port missing!
[List of unreleased ports [GOL Wiki]](https://www.gamingonlinux.com/crowdfunding/index.php/Unreleased_Ports)
That'll help a lot to keep track on the promises of developers/publishers.
(And please don't forget to add a link to the source of the information.)
