Wolfire Overgrowth Game Makes Its Linux Debut

Posted by Michael Larabel on May 28, 2012

The native Linux support for the Wolfire Overgrowth game has finally arrived.

Wolfire Games has been working on a native Linux port of their forthcoming "Overgrowth" game. This title that's much anticipated by many Linux gamers now finally has the Linux support available with its new 180 build.

Last month there was the Overgrowth Linux teaser and since then the issues with the Linux port have been worked out and it's ready to played at scale on your favorite penguin operating system. It's even reported that the Linux port of Overgrowth is now better off than the Windows version, which also puts it better than the Wine-powered version should you been resorting to that software previously.

The Overgrowth a180 change-log is available from the Wolfire blog. Embedded below are two videos about this latest Overgrowth update on Linux.
