• Warhammer 40,000: Boltgun is absolute boomer shooter joy

  Warhammer 40,000: Boltgun has released on Steam and it works out of the box on Steam Deck and desktop Linux thanks to Proton 8. With thanks to Focus Entertainment for sending a pre-release key.

• Total War: PHARAOH announced - Linux port from Feral Interactive (UPDATE: incorrect)

  Update: Feral Interactive emailed me to correct the record that they're not actually doing a Linux port this time. They said the Creative Assembly FAQ post was incorrect. Feral are now doing macOS only.

  Path of Titans is one I haven't checked on in some time, a dinosaur MMO survival game currently in development and it's looking pretty good. Still relatively early days for the game, but the content has been expanding on this quite nicely.

• Duke Nukem Forever: Restoration Project got a big upgrade

  Remember Duke Nukem Forever? You would be forgiven if you don't. As usual though, modders to the rescue. With the release of the Duke It Out update for the Duke Nukem Forever: Restoration Project. This project has a simple goal: to complete Duke Nukem Forever as it was originally intended back in 2001.
