The Aleph One developers have now put all three of Bungie's (Halo / Destiny) classic FPS series on Steam with Classic Marathon Infinity now available free.
Not only that, all three now also have Steam Workshop support with the update to the Aleph One open source game engine that powers all three games. The developers are still choosing not to put up the Native Linux versions though, so you'll either need to set them to use Proton, or if you do wish to run them with Linux builds there's Luxtorpeda.
I tested the game working nicely direct from Steam with Proton 9.
More about Marathon Infinity:
Marathon Infinity takes the closed universe of the Marathon series and blows it wide open. The solo/co-op campaign, “Blood Tides of Lh’owon,” is a 20-level scenario sporting new textures, weapons, and enemies. More than that, the scenario sheds a surprising new light on the story’s characters and the meaning of events. Having defeated the Pfhor and reawakened the ancient remnants of the S’pht, the player now faces a world where friends become enemies and all is not what it seems…
This classic 1996 Bungie™ FPS is now maintained by the fan community. Experience authentic game play using the original data files, with optional widescreen HUD support, 3D filtering/perspective, positional audio, and 60+ fps interpolation, just in case the original is too authentic.

Probably the same reason as always. Distributing software for Linux is a pain the ass.
