Feral Interactive, the absolute monster when it comes to big Linux game ports is asking what you want to see again.
You all know Feral by now, they've ported HITMAN, F1 2017, Mad Max, Dawn of War III, Life is Strange, XCOM, XCOM 2, DiRT Rally and many more seriously good games to Linux. On top of that, they still have an existing teaser up that they haven't yet announced, all we know is that it's coming to Linux.
On Twitter, they asked this recently:
It’s a New Year full of new possibilities! If you could only have one new game for macOS, Linux or mobile in 2018, which one would it be? And why? We can’t promise that your dreams will come true, but the best answers will star in our email newsletter.
Naturally, Feral lurk in our comments, so feel free to post here as well as I'm sure they will be taking note.
For me personally, I would like a new open-world game that I can travel around and sink plenty of hours into. Something to allow time to fade away and forget about all lifes problems.
So—what do you want Feral to bring to Linux next?

The comments on this article are closed.
I agree with the general sentiment of the comments implying a need for more open world games. Here's a few more titles for consideration:

- Skyrim
- BattleZone 2: Combat Commander (New relaunch coming to GOG in 2018)
- Mount and Blade Bannerlord (assuming a 2018 launch, but never too early to start negotiations!)

Shadow of War for me for sure.
And Mount & Blade II: Bannerlord, but my guess is that they'd make it an in house port again as they did last time at taleworlds.

Doom 2016, GTA V, and Elite: Dangerous are the top entries on my wishlist.

I'm still going to keep my head in the clouds and request Horizon: Zero Dawn against all odds. As others have said, not too many native options for open world first-person RPGs currently, and my god does that game look gorgeous and immersive and have a great narrative. As a bonus, no one can say they already have a Windows license on Steam and don't need to buy it again :P
I see many people requesting Rise of the Tomb Raider; wasn't that one already confirmed on Feral's radar? If not, that's a good second/realistic choice.

Almost anything open world based, yes. Preferably with a futuristic theme but heck I'll take anything I can dive into and LIVE. As long as it has a single player campaign and not just mp sandbox.

I love the games they've ported so far and still have to purchase a few of 'em (this year for sure).
A few games I'd love to see would be The Witcher 3, and maybe Dragon Age: Inquisition. Loves my RPGs.
But lately I've been finally seeing JRPGs on linux such as Disgaea 2 PC, which is awesome. Nippon Ichi Software never added linux support for Disgaea PC or Phantom Brave PC, though. Not too big of a deal since there are excellent emulators that can still play these games. Hopefully the rumored port of Disgaea 5 will support linux. But anyway back on topic...
I'd like to see more JRPG ports to linux as well. The major, more recent titles being:
Tales of Zestiria
Tales of Berseria
Ys 8: Lacrimosa of Dana
and Ni no Kuni II
I would absolutely buy anything listed here.

It's the common guess for what's on Feral's radar for Linux, but as usual, there's no confirmation to know for sure.

Warhammer 40,000: Dawn of War III - cross-platform Multiplayer with Windows, since a multiplayer game without players is a dead game!
Warcraft III - Since it's a nice classic game and NO moving target -> easy to port since it has an OGL renderer.
Starcraft II - The most amazing RTS ever made!
The Witcher III - Since it's the mos amazing modern RPG ever made!
Age of Empires II HD - Since it's THE classic RTS game.

I have replied on their Tweet, but I dream about Shenmue 3 sooo much. Soooo much. I know its still in development but should release in 2018. Having Linux version would be just awesome. They are using UE4 and releasing also on PS4, so maybe it would not be that hard?

Though I've already on twitter expressed my interest for Elite: Dangerous (with VR and Hotas support) to be ported... there are many more games I'd like to have on Linux. So here is the rest of my wishlist (not in any particular order):
Games that work good with wine (or better that I'm running with wine), but a native port would be appreciated:
Best would be of course, to get new games with day 1 Linux support, as within the first days the most copies are sold.
So the list can continue ^_^
Yeah, if it was up to me Feral will be busy forever
- NieR: Automata
- Overcooked
- Cuphead
- Life is Strange: Before the Storm
- Rise of the Tomb Raider
- Middle-earth: Shadow of War
- Hellblade: Senua's Sacrifice
- Scorn
- Path of Exile
- Tom Clancy's The Division
- Tom Clancy's Rainbow Six: Siege
- Quantum Break
- Assassin's Creed Origins
- Subnautica

Quoting: GuestI'm still going with Space Marine.
I'd be willing to buy a "separate" (GNU/Linux only entry) game rather than expect a free port of an old game that I already have.
Well, it seems to work with Wine somehow https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uUTkv40UAI4 .
Not sure if I would want it, as multiplayer is dead.
If I have time then I play W40K: Eternal Crusade if I want some W40K multiplayer action :). But that is even more unlikely to be ported, as there is only a very small player base left :(. Currently not working on Wine also. Haven't tried Wine 3.0 yet. So, not the best material for an port.

Sweet feathers of Tux this thread blew up quick.
I vote for ELEX. Piranha Bytes has a unique style when it comes to RPGs , and while all their previous titles work well under wine (as far as i know , have not tested them all ) they would bring something interesting to the table.

Total War Warhammer 2, why? because it's Warhammer, do you really need any other reasons?
Whatever game they choose next to port I hope it's one I DON'T already own.

I'd love to see Subnautica ported. It's already on Mac so it shouldn't be all that tough. Maybe The Forest too, although it's got issues to work out even on Windows.
Skyrim, OF COURSE. I mean c'mon, you know me.
The remaster for Dark Souls would go down nice, especially since they seem to be aiming at every other platform out there.

I think Feral can watch on the games that they already ported on Mac, but not on Linux (like Sleeping Dogs, Deus Ex: Human Revolution, BioShock Remastered etc.). It's not good, because Deus Ex: Mankind Divided has Linux version, but its ancestor Human Revolution doesn't have it.
Because many people want to have new games to be ported, but old ones don't have to be forgotten too.

I want Deus Ex: Human Revolution. It runs quite badly in Wine, we've got Mankind Divided, and it's already ported on Mac.

The one game I would absolutely love to see Planet Coaster on Linux. As a huge fan of the RCT series it would fulfill my dreams of a proper 3D version (RCT3 was okay but always pretty buggy for me, and PC appears to have done it much better anyway).
Unfortunately Frontier don't seem to want to support Linux, and since PC was developed on an in-house engine it seems very unlikely we'll get it. Even more unfortunately it doesn't look like it'll run under WINE anytime soon either.

Feral you guys are amazing at what you do thank you for supporting Linux. Now i must say this convince Bethesda for you to back port all there titles from Skyrim to the latest Wolfenstein the new Colossus, and for the love of god I need Surround sound 7.1 Preferably please. I hate gaming in stereo its like playing titles that support Gamepad with no force feedback or Racing titles that support steering wheel with no feed back awful for my hands and awful for my ears.:'(
