A few days ago, the Shadowrun Returns team promised that if their Kickstarter reached the $1 million mark, they’d be able to include some extra features, including a Linux version. Lo and behold, that milestone has been reached and Linux support is a go.
Creator Jordan Weisman also talked a bit about what the extra content would be in a quick video update today. The big one is that there’s going to be an entire extra city to explore, and according to Weisman, they’ll be adding “enormous depth” to the game, thanks to the additional funding.
Weisman also set the next milestone for Kickstarter backers to aim for. If the project reaches $1.5 million, Weisman et al will build a backer-exclusive quest line that involves the characters from early games in the series. Definitely a great incentive for old-school Shadowrun fans.
