Squad [Steam, Official Site], the FPS game from Offworld Industries is showing signs that it might be coming over to Linux.
Only a day ago, SteamDB showed this:
QuoteChanged Depots
393382/config/osarch: 64
393382/config/oslist: linux
393382/name: Squad Depot Linux
The interesting thing is that the developers have said for a while they do want to support Linux, as it has been "an interesting side project" (source, source 2).
The game uses Unreal Engine and we know already how iffy their Linux support actually is. Hopefully they won't come across too many troubles.
About the game
Squad is a 50 vs 50 multiplayer first-person shooter that aims to capture combat realism through communication and teamplay, emphasizing both strong squad cohesion mechanics as well as larger scale coordination, tactics and planning. It features large open maps, vehicle-based combined arms gameplay, and player-constructed bases to create a heart-thumping, visceral gaming experience which mixes organized tactical multi-squad planning with split second decision-making in real-world scale firefights.
