It seems the recent teaser of a new Linux & Mac port from Feral Interactive has seen the two platforms split, with Mac now getting it first.
When the "West Norwood" teaser was first announced, it was shown as coming to Linux & Mac at the same time. Now they each have an entry, with the Mac version due out first.
Now the Linux version is sat in the "Soon" section, with Mac in the "Very Soon" section:
Have you any idea what it is yet?
I have to say it's a shame. Not unexpected though, since Feral now have to work with a different graphics API for Mac. They also likely have two different teams working on Linux & Mac ports, so the Linux team might be encountering problems.
So from Feral: Linux isn't getting Bioshock Remastered, the Total War WARHAMMER 'Norsca' DLC is delayed for us and the XCOM 2: War of the Chosen expansion is not a day-1 Linux release either. Hopefully Feral will step up a bit for us, but I'm sure they have some surprises in store for us yet.
This year they've already given us some really fun games like HITMAN, Shogun 2 and DiRT Rally. I personally hope for some more great single-player games from them!

Quoting: m2mg2Quoting: Whitewolfe80Quoting: m2mg2Just to clarify, has Feral actually said Bioshock remastered isn't coming to Linux?
I still haven't seen a statement to that effect. Just the generic, we have nothing to report on Linux at this time.Quoting: m2mg2Just to clarify, has Feral actually said Bioshock remastered isn't coming to Linux?

Well, okay, just to clarify then: you will never see Feral saying that Bioshock Remaster isn't coming to Linux.
Ever.
Because, who knows? It might happen. Some day. And on that day, Feral will announce it. Until then, vague, indirect deflection is all you'll get.

Actually I doubt that it will, at least not soon. I even said that in my last post.
Edit: Oops, I thought I did but looking back at it I left it off. I intended to say I don't think they are porting it.

So what was that? I was hoping for Rise of Tomb Raider.
