It's now officially confirmed that Two Point Hospital, which is developed by Two Point Studios made up of developers previously from Bullfrog, Muckyfoot and Lionhead and published by SEGA will be released for Linux.
In a bit of a mad dash to find information now that the release date of August 30th is confirmed, I managed to get it confirmed from their official Twitter account (we didn't get a press release—we should hopefully be on their list now after a chat):
Yes! We're launching on PC, Mac and Linux!
They also just put this post up on Steam which also confirms it.
Absolutely awesome news, as a massive fan of Theme Hospital, it's going to be fantastic to have it on Linux. Much like that classic, Two Point Hospital will see you attempt to cure all sorts of weird illnesses.
You can see some gameplay below:

I played the hell out of theme hospital years ago and it is the only computer game my wife ever played for more than 30seconds (helps she works for the NHS).

Theme Hospital was one of the greatest games ever. I really hope they manage to capture the same humour and charm of the original.
Hope this captures the same spirit.
Part of me hopes so but part of me also wants new crazy diseases and funky cures with a larger management theme
This is the best news I have had in ages. I am a huge Theme Hospital fan and was praying for a Linux release. This is a guaranteed day 1 purchase for me.
A huge thanks to both SEGA and Two Point Studios for the Linux support.
Edit: Spelling, can't type.
