Woah! Holy Sh...Deus Ex: Mankind Divided looks like it may be getting a Linux & SteamOS release which has literally blown my tiny little mind.

There's a rather large bit of info here on SteamDB, where you can see stuff like this:
Quotelaunch/9/config/oslist: linux
launch/9/executable: DeusExMD.sh
launch/9/type: none

And this:
Quote337001/encryptedmanifests/domesticated_mac_linux_sync/encrypted_gid_2: 973A3491BA8BBFE16CAF17F204300E1B


Obviously no word on a release date and this is not confirmed anywhere. It's good supporting evidence though.

Reminder: We have seen Linux pop up on SteamDB before and a port never happened. Just something to keep in mind.

Exciting either way though, as the game is being very well reviewed all around from what I can see. I actually played and finished the one directly before this and loved it. You can bet I will play the crap out of it if/when it's released for us.

About the game
The year is 2029, and mechanically augmented humans have now been deemed outcasts, living a life of complete and total segregation from the rest of society.

Now an experienced covert operative, Adam Jensen is forced to operate in a world that has grown to despise his kind. Armed with a new arsenal of state-of-the-art weapons and augmentations, he must choose the right approach, along with who to trust, in order to unravel a vast worldwide conspiracy.

You guys are so predictable. :P

Quoting: ShmerlPretty interesting, but a pity it's Square Enix. Low chances of it coming out DRM-free.

I wouldn't completely dismiss it, seeing as they had Feral port Tomb Raider and Life is Strange.

mmmm, not convinced , It uses the Denuvo DRM I belive. Thought that wasn't cross platform.

Sincerely hope I'm wrong though !

Maybe they just care less when it comes to Mac/Linux releases. Having those without Denuvo is not likely to get Windows users to install a different OS just to pirate that it.

Also, DRM is most useful for the first month or so. After that, the sales peak has gone anyway. I doubt we'll get it that soon anyway.

What if that is the masterplan to convert some of the windows gamers to Linux? OS X is much harder to install on an average PC so Linux looks like an obvious choice...

looks like the depots are available for mac and linux with english, french, german, italian, japanese and portugese languages.

keep in mind, people playing on Windows have been complaining about performance, so this will most likely require a mid-high to high end system to run well.

Oh man, this really can't be. I might have to upgrade my computer sooner than I though, if only for this.

I also hope they port HR, but that's a bit doubtfull. I guess I will have to finish this one on Windows, for once.
