Hold onto your pants, as you're in for a wild ride! Tomb Raider is officially launching on Linux & SteamOS today.

A big fan of the game myself, but more on that from us later at the release.

You can visit the Feral mini-site for more information right now.

I will hopefully be livestreaming it later this evening. Likely around 8-9PM UTC, so keep an eye out penguin gamers.

without demo, I won't buy it due to nvidia driver requirement.

I have been waiting for this, since they announced it coming to Linux. Feral are brilliant at porting games and will no doubt of made a fantastic job on this game. I have been a fan of this game since it's release to the PC in 2013 and now it's out for Linux, no more slowing down or stuff running in the background like on Windows, with Anti-virus and other things constantly slowing down your gaming experiences.

Ups, I forgot that.
I'm not eager on installing a driver not contained in any Debian distribution...

Seconded, though I'm not even sure I can hold off until next monday..

Just looking at her face on the mini-site and realising I will soon play with her this game made me... well, you know...

You can still use the driver you are using at the moment. I'm using 361.42 driver with Ubuntu Mate 16.04, that is the recommended driver that's in the proprietary list.

Playing all games is very much possible (assuming you have enough bucks). Playing all to completion has become very much impossible, esp. when you go for 100% achievements!
