Linux support:
While the Linux community still requests native support in the Steam Discussions. We reached out to Brytenwalda via email.
…sorry for the delay with the release in the Linux version. Internally, we have started testing the Linux version and it is generally doing well, although there are some problems that we need to fix.
Since Beyond Mankind: The Awakening development is using Unity 3D. You would expect that the port should be easy. Well, according to the reply there are still some challenges. Problems that need fixes, although not specified, are holding up the Linux build. But due note, the developer wants to offer Linux support as soon as possible. Stating, “we have set a deadline for the end of January, but we will try to make it earlier.”
One of the issues Brytenwalda also mentioned is Beta testers for Linux. So for all those following the Linux_gaming subreddit, keep an eye out for a post.
