GOG & AI Team Up: Linux Gaming Gets a Boost!

GOG is actively developing native Linux support for its Galaxy desktop client, signaling a move to embrace the growing presence of Linux in PC gaming, according to multiple reports. The company's plans were revealed following a job listing for a senior software engineer focused on porting the client to Linux, and confirmed in a Reddit AMA. While an official release date has not been announced, the project is already underway.

The news was first reported by The Verge, which noted that GOG's move reflects a broader trend of increased interest in Linux within the gaming community. The company's decision comes as the popularity of Linux as a gaming platform continues to rise.

According to a report from The Verge, the development of native Linux support for GOG Galaxy is a significant step for the platform. The Verge's weekend editor, Terrence O'Brien, who has over 18 years of experience, including 10 years as managing editor at Engadget, also shared his personal experience with Linux, stating "I need an OS, not another hobby."

The announcement of GOG's Linux support comes amid other developments in the tech world. The Verge also reported on the adaptation of the Baldur's Gate video game series into a TV show by Craig Mazin, set after the events of Baldur's Gate 3. Additionally, the climbing simulator "Cairn" emphasizes realistic gameplay, and WordPress has integrated a Claude connector for data analysis, as reported by multiple sources.
