    The much praised Alien Isolation is now available for Linux on Steam.

    I have not had the time to try it out yet, but I will post here how it runs as soon as I have the time to test it.

    EDIT: It is currently on sale until the 2nd of November, so now might be a good time to buy it for anyone interested.

    Oh AWESOME! I've got to give this one a go. I've got it on my PS4 and haven't been able to complete it yet because of language in certain parts that I'd rather not expose my 6y-old to. Headphones on my PC will solve that problem.

    Yay! :cool:
    Finally!

    So is it a native port or an eON wrapper?

    Apparently native and requires equal shadow of mordor compute shaders aka opengl 4.3

    :)

    The game runs perfectly for me. I am able to run it with all settings on ultra, and the game runs smoothly. This is a well done Linux port!

    Watched a playthrough on it as my computer is far too weak to run it. Would get it otherwise thought!
