"The Cave" Is Coming To Steam On Linux Next Week

Posted by Michael Larabel on January 16, 2013

Planned for release next week, on 23 January, is "The Cave" game and there will be a native Linux port when it debuts on Valve's Steam platform.

The Cave is a platform-adventure game being developed for all major computer platforms plus game consoles. The game is highly-anticipated amongst gamers since it's original work and its development was led by a game designer known for several classic games from LucasArts.

As described on The Cave's web-site:
The Cave is a new adventure game from Monkey Island and Maniac Mansion creator Ron Gilbert, and Double Fine Productions, the award-winning studio behind Psychonauts and Brutal Legend.

Assemble your team of three from seven unlikely adventurers, each with their own unique personalities and stories, then descend into the mysterious depths to explore locations including a subterranean amusement park and a medieval castle, not to mention a fully armed and ready-to-launch nuclear-tipped ICBM.
Below is the launch trailer for this game that will be shipping next week on Linux alongside its debut on other platforms.
