Good news everyone! Dawn of War III has been updated on Linux today and we now have the Annihilation game modes available.

Galimulator is another fun little find on itch, it's a 'galaxy emulator' where you can watch what happens, or you can decide to take control.

RogueCraft Squadron is another great find on itch. A simple RTS game that has perma-death and upgrades like you might find in a roguelike.

Colony Survival is a new Early Access mix of a strategy game and a survival game with a voxel style, but is it any good?

Rise of Industry (formerly known as Project Automata) is a neat little find on itch today, a simulation game about building a small company into an industrial and financial empire!

Cossacks 3, the strategy title from GSC Game World that is currently in Beta for Linux just got a patch today. It seems the developers are making progress on the Linux issues.

The atmosphere over here is so thick with excitement you could cut it with a knife, I really am looking forward to XCOM 2: War of the Chosen! Take a look at a new revealed for The Reaper.

Ashes of the Singularity is aiming to have Vulkan support in August, which paves the way for Linux support in future.

SAELIG is a very interesting looking strategy, role-playing, simulation, and trading game that is planning a Linux release. It's seeing a slight delay, but the communication from the developer has been great.

I'm a pretty big fan of Hyper Knights, the simple and fun medieval strategy and action game and now it's even better with Multiplayer.

Planetary Annihilation: TITANS, the game I wish was more popular to be updated and fixed up more often is, surprisingly, still alive.

Promised many times and repeatedly delayed, Cossacks 3 is now officially in open beta for all Linux gamers.

For those that missed the news, Dawn of War III is set to get a new game mode called Annihilation that will come in two variations. There's now a trailer to explain it too.

The World War 2 grand strategy game has gotten a small expansion focusing on the minor powers of Central Europe. As is customary with DLC releases, Paradox have also updated the game with a lot of free goodies too.

The first of what Paradox is calling an “immersion pack” has been released for the sprawling grand strategy game. I gave it a go, exploring just what they changed for the Russian region and powers.

Tropico 6 has been announced and the really good news is that Linux is going to be supported just like the previous title.

XCOM 2: War of the Chosen is the huge new expansion coming to XCOM 2 and Feral Interactive have confirmed they will be porting it. The press emails to me specifically mentioned Windows, but Linux wasn't mentioned. Glad to see it cleared up.

The Underground King was one of the last games submitted to Steam Greenlight before being quickly Greenlit by Valve. The promising mix of racing strategy and RPG mechanics is currently on Kickstarter, complete with Linux support.

Solving mysteries, traveling to faraway lands and making a name for yourself is all in a good day’s work in this adventure game that combines strategy elements with plenty of charm. I gave the game and its expansion a look and have a few thoughts on it.

Hey you humies! Time to die! Feral Interactive have done it once again! We now have a native Linux port of Warhammer 40,000: Dawn of War III and here’s my port report. Waaagh!
