Another bit of annoyance for Dying Light fans. Techland have release an update for Dying Light adding in workshop support for mods, and the mod tools to go along with it. The kicker is that it all needs Windows.
Tripwire have announced that Killing Floor 2 will be released on the 21st of April into Early Access, but we have it confirmed Linux is not in the initial release.
I managed to get hold of the Contagion developers, and they confirmed the Linux port is still planned! We haven’t heard from them about it since June last year, so it’s good to see it hasn't been forgotten.
Dying Light is due to get a massive patch next week which should have the performance fixes we have been waiting on, a load of free content, and a new DLC too.
So... Dying Light. A triple A day one Linux port. Now that would sound awesome but sadly releasing games in a horrible state is trendy and Techland seems to have wanted a piece of that cake. Let's list the problems, shall we?
Dying Light is now confirmed for Linux thanks to the announcement from the developers on the Steam store itself. The Linux icons show up on the store pages, and the game even has a steam coming soon banner on the home-page. Time to get seriously excited.
Well this was a surprised! Dying Light has hints that it may come to Linux thanks to information from the awesome SteamDB. UPDATED: Linux icon now on the store!
Zombie games can be usually placed into one of two categories, survival and gore-fest. You either attempt to survive the day to day life or you chop large hordes of zombies into pieces. Project Zomboid takes the survival route.
Project Zomboid is the fantastic zombie survival game that you can play in single-player, co-op, or online with other survivors. Myself and Samsai have really been getting into it, and a massive update was released.
While the announcement that Killing Floor 2 will release for PS4 won't excite many; the actual trailer will. It will be mostly the same for PC and PS4, so be sure to take a look.
We recently had a chance to speak to Techland the original developers of the Dead Island series, but they have confirmed they are no longer involved with it.
Dean Hall the creator of DayZ originally mentioned on reddit his interest in getting a Linux version, and he was also caught on video mentioning it at PAX.
