GOG is actively developing native Linux support for its Galaxy client, signaling a move to embrace the growing presence of Linux in the PC gaming world, according to multiple reports. While an official release date remains unannounced, the company's efforts demonstrate its recognition of Linux's increasing importance in the gaming landscape.
The news, initially revealed through a job listing for a senior software engineer focused on porting the Galaxy desktop client to Linux, was later confirmed in a Reddit AMA. "Its still too early to give an ETA," the GOG team stated in the Reddit thread, according to The Verge.
This development comes as the gaming industry continues to evolve, with Linux gaining traction among PC gamers. The move by GOG, a platform known for its DRM-free games, reflects a broader trend of companies adapting to the changing preferences of the gaming community.
In related news, the critically acclaimed Baldur's Gate video game series is being adapted into a TV show by Craig Mazin, known for HBO's "The Last of Us" adaptation and "Chernobyl," according to BBC Technology and The Verge. The show will build upon the game's lore and continue the story, though the original game developers, Larian Studios, will not be directly involved in the production.
